Third Grade

Welcome to Third Grade!

Third Grade Team: Kathy Nienhaus, Mindy Jones, Katy Hysong.

Third grade is an exciting year of learning as students strengthen their academic skills and dive deeper into more complex concepts. In reading and writing, third graders will focus on improving reading comprehension, analyzing stories, and writing multi-paragraph responses with clear organization and detail. In math, they will master multiplication and division, work with fractions, and explore concepts like perimeter, area, and problem-solving strategies. Science topics will include ecosystems, the properties of matter, and forces and motion, encouraging hands-on exploration and inquiry. Social studies will expand students' understanding of U.S. history, geography, and the structure of government, along with learning about cultural diversity and global communities. Throughout the year, third graders will also enhance their skills in art, music, and physical education, while developing important critical thinking and collaboration abilities. Third grade lays a strong foundation for the more advanced challenges and exciting learning to come.
