3rd grade nurturing

In the first semester, 3rd graders participate in a nurturing program that involves weekly A.I.G. push-in lessons to each classroom.  Activities and units are designed to explore talent and nurture potential.  Each activity will also yield student work samples to be saved in individual student A.I.G. portfolios. 

            The collection of standard work samples across the grade level is to ensure that:

·        every 3^rd grader has an equal opportunity to complete high quality, open-ended work samples that demonstrate advanced thought.

·        every 3rd grader has equal exposure to modeling, guided support and scaffolding from the A.I.G. teacher.

           

            Nurturing lessons include math, language arts, and non-verbal activities. We will begin our program with nurturing lessons in math.  All lessons are aligned with the Common Core Standards.  Be sure to ask your child about the projects we are doing in class!
