3rd Grade November Daily Language Review
With the implementation of the new ELA TEKS this year, having a daily spiral review in your toolbox that reviews all the TEKS for language, spelling, and writing is a MUST!! DAILY WRITING READY© is a standards-based program that follows a research-based model of continuous, systematic instruction, building from simple to complex to help students learn and retain skills. In this 3rd grade unit for November, students practice language & writing skills in 10-15 minute daily lessons. Skills taught in this unit include:
- Capitalization (proper nouns, holidays, months, days of the week, titles of people, geographical names & places, beginning of sentence)
- Complete sentences (subject/predicate)
- Compound sentences
- Homophones (hour/our, its/it’s, to/too/two)
- Parts of speech (helping verbs, conjunctions, subject/possessive pronouns)
- Punctuation (apostrophes in possessives & contractions, commas in a series, comma in compound sentence, ending punctuation)
- Spelling
- Diagramming sentences
Monday – Thursday, students will practice:
- 2 sentence-editing exercises
- 2-3 language/vocabulary exercises
- 1 sentence-diagramming exercise
- 1 exit ticket (a short, 1-2 minute formative assessment linked to the objective of that day’s lessons)
On Friday, students will complete a brief, 1-page formal assessment measuring their understanding of the skills taught during the week. An optional study guide is provided also to give to students on Monday before the test so that parents can work with their children at home throughout the week.
