Our 3rd grade students are working hard on their Portland unit.
They are learning about various landmarks of Portland and Portland's history. Landmarks range from the Benson Bubblers, to Powell's bookstore and the world's smallest park.
Students are enjoying researching and writing about their landmarks. The students practice writing full paragraphs in proper form and Mrs. Prince does a great job helping them to put it all together. Once the research and writing is done, students will integrate previously learned mapping skills by locating and marking the landmarks on a Portland map. They will discuss site locations and best walking routes before wrapping up this exciting unit with an opportunity to explore downtown Portland on a "treasure hunt" field trip. I can't wait to hear all about it!
If you have a moment, stop by the 3rd grade board to check out the fantastic job they’re doing!”
