Common Core Information
Parent Links to the Common Core
Clink on the link and then download the document to find out more information about how you can support your student in school. Common Core Standards are what teachers at United West utilize to plan and guide instruction. English Mathematics What to Expect in Third Grade Reading: Every week your student will have a reading selection in their Journey’s reading book. A comprehension test will be given on Friday. During shortened weeks, we will work on isolated reading strategies using their individual reading selections or AR books. Your student is expected to read for 20 minutes every night and then write 3 sentences in their reading record. The reading record is stapled in their assignment planner, and it will be collected every Monday. Your student is expected to read AR books and take tests when they have completed those stories. English/ Writing: Rarely will your student have homework in these subjects. If homework is given, it most often will be to complete a draft response to a writing prompt. Math: Your student participates in a 30 minute math lesson. They will then be responsible for completing a "problem set" page or a "homework page". Answer keys for the "problem set" pages can be found online. Homework will rarely if ever be sent home in this subject.
