Introduction to 3rd Grade

 

Students in grade 3 strengthen their foundational and critical reading and writing skills to proficiently read grade-appropriate complex literature and informational text. Instruction focuses on asking and answering explicit and inferential questions, using text evidence, summarizing, and engaging in collaborative conversation. Students analyze texts for literary elements, author’s purpose, and structure. Students continue to practice the writing process by writing narrative (grade level focus mode), informative, and opinion pieces incorporating grade level grammar concepts. Students expand their personal and academic vocabulary they can use in their writing and speaking and students develop stamina for longer periods of reading and writing.

  UDL Lesson

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a research-based framework for improving student learning experiences and outcomes through careful instructional planning focused on the varied needs of all students, including students with visible and non-visible disabilities, advanced and gifted learners, and English learners.

 

Some general ideas for implementing the UDL lens in an ELA lesson, PK-12, are provided in this chart.

Exemplar Lesson Plans

These exemplar lesson plans showcase best practices for English language arts. These lessons are aligned to the Oklahoma Academic Standards and bundle together multiple objectives to showcase the recursive nature of ELA. Each lesson plan includes helpful explanations about the instructional plan and steps. Teachers can review these sample lessons on their own, with a colleague, and/or with their professional learning community, to reflect on the highlighted ELA practices and how they mesh with their own current classroom practices.

 

Lesson plans are available for each grade featuring texts from the following genres: fiction, nonfiction, & poetry.

 

Moreover, an exemplar lesson plan sequence regarding Standard 6 research is available for each grade band.

  Writing Resources

This suite of writing resources includes:

  • student-friendly checklists for the narrative, informative, argumentative, and research modes
  • editing checklists for the beginning and middle of the school year
  • examples of teacher feedback on student writing
  • a peer feedback lesson plan with a slideshow and handout
