Language Arts 3

The Grade 3 language arts program focuses on the development of reading comprehension skills through reading a variety of novels and short stories. Writing skills (including how to use the writing process more independently) are developed through writing personal narratives, how-to paragraphs, descriptive articles, personal letters and email, book reports, persuasive essays, and fantasy stories.

Grammar and spelling skills, as well as cursive writing, are also a part of daily writing activities. Speaking and listening skills are integrated throughout the day.
