Welcome to our 3rd-grade ELAR Padlet! This year, we will be using Padlet as our digital resource. Each week, we will read, write, and practice our creative thinking skills. I will post writing prompts, class announcements, and group activities here. For this week, we will be exploring writing that connects science and reading. Let's have fun learning and practicing great writing habits!
