3_3

= **Grade 3 Unit 3: Creative, Inventive, and Notable People ** = In this third six-week unit of third grade, students read biographies about musicians, artists, and inventors of the early twentieth century.  Students read fiction that shows the passion of an artist; poetry that shows a different way of thinking; and biographies of creative people living and working in the same time period. They also read about conjunctions and use them while composing sentences that describe what they learned about the inventors. They create a slide presentation and build upon the word work on conjunctions by writing an opinion piece about a favorite person in the unit. Finally, they record themselves fluently reading a poem, illustrate the poem, and post the work on the Internet for parents to enjoy.
