North Olmsted City Schools Online/eLearning Plan Grade: 3rd Grade

Dear Families, The following information has been created by the district Third Grade Team as a way for your child to continue to practice educational skills and stay engaged in learning during the extended school closure. We have planned a variety of activities that would not only engage your child, but also provide fun opportunities for you to interact with them. Please use these resources to guide learning. Should you have any questions, please first contact your child’s teacher by email; or next, contact your child’s principal (Chestnut - Mr. Monnin at b rent.monnin@nocseagles.org ; Pine - Mrs. D’Amico at terese.d’ amico@nocseagles.org ; Maple - Mr. Alexandrou at jim.alexandrou@nocseagles.org ).

We are providing choices for you. The goal is for students to spend approximately 15 minutes per day on each subject area: reading, writing, and math. For example, a student might choose a book on Bookflix or read for 15 minutes, then write a response to that reading, followed up by 15 minutes of math practice on MobyMax. Please use the resources that your child is familiar using. Our hope is that students stay engaged and enjoy this opportunity to individualize their learning.

Technology Resources You will be receiving information from the district on how to log in to your child’s Clever account to access our electronic resources. All of the resources below are available electronically (i.e. chromebooks, computers, phones, etc.). Students will use their Clever login to access each resource. Students should be familiar with most if not all of these electronic resources. If there are questions on how to access or use any of the resources, please contact your child’s teacher.

Feel free to write this analysis on a seperate sheet of paper or the back of your artwork. For an additional challenge write an analysis on an artwork in a museum.
