Welcome to 3rd Grade!

Third grade is a transition year between primary and intermediate education. Building upon the foundation started in earlier grades, students cross the bridge from learning to read to reading to learn. It is a time of growing independence and accountability. College Prep Elementary’s primary goal is to ensure that all students will be reading and writing at or above grade level by the end of third grade.

The core curriculum for elementary-aged students is grounded in Minnesota state standards with a focus on math, science, social studies and English-language arts/literacy. The language arts curriculum encompasses the areas of literature, informative texts, writing, speaking, viewing, listening, media literacy and language skills.
