Grade 3 Student Kit

As your third graders seek answers to “Who, what, when, where, why, and how,” you have the opportunity to help them navigate through this year of expanding horizons. This convenient kit contains all essential textbooks including assessments, for an entire year of schooling—a total of 25 items. Combine this kit with the Grade 3 Teacher Kit (or Total Teaching Package) to provide your third graders a strong foundation in academics and life skills from a Christian perspective.

Features

• Reading—What an exciting and growing year in reading! This year’s reading includes a simplified version of the novel The Swiss Family Robinson and other exciting chapter books such as Secret in the Maple Tree.
• Language and Penmanship—There is still a lot of grammar and writing building to do in third grade! That means learning new concepts as they are tied to foundational concepts. Here come nouns, verbs, adjectives, and word usage! Third graders will also practice correct penmanship skills through writing exercises and include Bible verses and creative writing exercises.
• Spelling and Poetry—Spelling is a learned and practiced art. The 34 weekly spelling lists complete with vocabulary words and definitions and creative exercises will make your students spelling artists! And they will memorize 8 delightful poems including “My Shadow."
• Arithmetic—This is the year your students will master their multiplication and division facts! They will even graduate into fractions as they learn to reduce, add, and subtract them.
• History—Reading the biographies of 22 people—from Christopher Columbus to Martin Luther King—not only gives your students a chronological understanding of American history but also inspiring character-building qualities to emulate.
• Science and Health—For curious third graders, learning about the bodies they live in, plants and animals and their habitats, and the weather is not just an academic exercise. It is fascinating fun!
• Art-- This work text includes seasonal projects that help your students further their coloring, drawing, painting, shaping, and modeling abilities. Your artists will study primary, secondary, and complementary colors as they work with chalking and shading.
