Third Grade

You are here: Home / Elementary School / Third Grade

DSC_0527Third Grade builds upon the programs and curricula introduced in our second grade program. The children learn through doing and managing many of their own activities, under the nuturing guidance of their teachers.

The children organize various programs that engage the skills they are learning in the classroom, such as math, language, communications, organization and process. Special class days such as 1800’s Day help the students bring history to life.

These programs are enormous self-esteem builders, as well as engineered to demonstrate the importance of caring for others.

McGinnis Woods Country Day School is committed to helping your child reach his/her highest potential while developing and maintaining a life-long love of learning. Our Third Grade program allows opportunities for your child to grow and develop at their own rate in all areas of development: emotional, physical, social, and intellectual.

Field trips are enjoyed monthly to reinforce classroom learning. Parents are always welcome and encouraged to join us.
