Fire Safety 

Third Graders were thrilled to have a Zoom presentation from the fire station this week. The Charleston Fire Department went over very important techniques in fire safety. Students were excited to review evacuation planning, ways to prevent fires, and how to react in dangerous situations. Third Graders were elated to see the firefighting gear that keeps firefighters safe.   

Social Studies

This week, Third Graders continued working on their Community Change Makers projects. Students have expanded on their work by searching for inspirational quotes which support their activists’ missions, as well as creating timelines of major events in their lives. Students are loving being able to use both books and supervised iPad research to include in their findings.

Reading

Third Graders have been reading nonfiction texts and using their findings to teach their peers. This week, we partnered up to share all of the interesting information they have read on their topics. Students outlined their main idea and collected notes to support their points. Third Graders were so excited to share everything they had learned with friends!
