Hello darlings! Amy here from That Teaching Spark! If you are like me, you use some semblance of technology in your classroom. You might be 1:1 with each student having a device or you may have access to a few devices for your entire class! I'm lucky enough to have a class set of chrome carts to share with my grade level of five teachers. We rotate the chrome books around to each other. I also have four devices that I use for math rotations every day! I have to admit, I would be lost without them! There are so many amazing websites and resources out there! I asked all of you in the All About 3rd Grade Facebook Group, to share the websites you use on a daily basis. I have reviews those websites and have included the ones most often recommended in this All About 3rd Grade Symbaloo. A Symbaloo is simply a bookmarking site. You can copy and paste this link on your classroom website, Google Classroom, or other learning platform for your students. Then students can click the icon to take them to the recommended page. https://www.symbaloo.com/mix/allabout3rdgrade Most websites that I included are free or at least allow for a free version with less bells and whistles. Here are 3 of My Favs 1. Epic Epic is perfect for sharing books on your projector. It has over hundreds of popular books! They have some books read aloud but I really like it for the nonfiction and collections that it offers. You can even create quizzes for your students. Watch this video for a little overview. 2. Prodigy Play Math Prep My kiddos use Prodigy everyday in math rotations. I can assign them any standard I want and it will create questions for them. This is what students see. They create little avatar wizards and then battle through lands that they unlock. They even earn pets that can have powers! They unlock and earn power ups by answering question correctly. You can assign the skills or have the game do it for you! In this video, I explain how to assign test prep, but it is the same directions for other assignments. 3. Go Formative This is a new website for me! I am super excited to try it next year! create online assessments, classwork or homework connects seamlessly with Google Classroom ANY GRADE, ANY SUBJECT, ANY DEVICE create a class & track student data students can type, draw or upload images get LIVE results & give instant feedback to your students very easy to use FREE & PAPERLESS for both teachers and students Check out the video for a sneak peek on how it works!

Amos and Boris by William Steig (Amazon link) has been a long term favorite read of mine and now ranks high on Sam's go-to list. Over the years, I've read it with children as young as kindergarten and as high as third grade - and there is always a mountain of post-read discussion and learning possibilities. The story tells of a small and adventurous mouse named Amos who develops a friendship with Boris, a huge whale. Amos the mouse becomes lost at sea and Boris saves his life. They learn from one another, and their special friendship helps them see things they would never have noticed on their own. Some tips for reading this text in the classroom It is a fairly lengthy read. Some young learners may need to have it read over a few different sessions with a break in between. Keep a chart paper and marker handy - there are some delightfully different words used. As you read, jot them down to come back to and discuss. Phosphorescent, luminous, mackerel, and frazzle and some of my favorites. After reading Amos and Boris This text provides a great opportunity for students to work on their ability to compare and contrast. When students compare and contrast while reading they are engaging in critical thinking. Comparing involves looking at similarities (and sometimes difference). Contrasting focuses only on differences. I made you some fun posters to introduce compare/contrast with your students, using this book. Give some examples using experiences, situations, texts or people familiar to your students. After a second read, have your students suggest ways that Amos and Boris are similar. Also have them describe ways they are different. Record them on the worksheet.

This is a great activity for a cooperative learning group! I put students into teams of three to four and gave them the challenge of creating a "Life Size Person" using quadrilaterals, triangles, semi-circles and quarter circles. I helped them cut the shapes with my paper cutter. All they had to do was tell me where to cut and give me dimensions. I did this so that the cuts would be straight and easier for them to measure. Yes! Measure! They did that also! They had to find their dimensions and then use the correct formula to find the area. All of their work was shown on the back of their "Life Size Person". (Next time, I will have them show it on the front.) All pieces were taped together on the back. Great conversations took place as students were creating. I heard one team even say something about using numbers that were easier to divide by two for the triangles, so that they wouldn't have a decimal answer! That is a pretty clever observation! Students also discussed which formulas to use, how to use them and my favorite, "you don't have to divide by two because there are two congruent semi-circles that make a whole circle when put together". Students also discussed the attributes of the shapes used. The final product had the total area of the composite figure. Click HERE for a free copy of the directions sheet!!! Here is another activity on Area of Composite Figures that will get your students walking and talking about math! Click here! If you use this activity in your classroom, I would love for you to share the amazing creations your students come up with on this post. Thanks for looking and have a great day!!!
