 During the year, students will focus on the following: 

  • Phonics (Heggerty), fluency (Readwell), vocabulary and comprehension in an age appropriate literacy program

  • Counting, measuring, sorting, place value, 2D and 3D shapes, number operations

  • Letter formation, drawing and dictating sentences

  • Sense of God’s presence in the world around them and to appreciate their own uniqueness

In third grade, students take a more active role in their learning and faith. They are encouraged to lead others through interaction and by example. Students are asked to stretch to meet new goals daily, and develop new skills to enhance learning for years to come.

3rd graders learn and teach about the saints so that we are better able to be saints.
