Grade+3+Resources

Welcome, third grade teachers! Please use this page to post websites, video clips, resources you've found or made (powerpoints, photostories, start pages, graphic organizers...) that would enrich the written CCPS Social Studies curriculum. Please be sure to share how the resource was used and what social studies outcome it supports. You can also post the names of read aloud books or student texts that were used to enhance the lessons. I hope everyone enjoys and benefits from exchanging great ideas! Cindy McCabe
