Module 3 Study Guide-Answer Key
In addition, your child also had an OPTIONAL homework from their Succeed book tonight. They could complete Module 3 Lesson 21 homework (pg. 257-259) and complete problems 1-3 if they are interested in extra credit. This also provides students with additional practice problems if they need them!
Greeting Flyers Family,
I would like to update you regarding our Kids Heart Challenge that ended on March 1st. With your support we have raised $10,850 for the American Heart Association this year. Amazing work!
Even though our donation window is closed for this school year, we still have one more week to sign up online and take the challenge for a stronger and healthier life. I am encouraging all of our students to “Take the Challenge”, choose water over sugary drinks, exercise for 60 minutes daily or do a kind deed daily. It is free to sign up, and students will receive a glow in the dark wristband for their dedication to a healthy lifestyle. If we can get 50% of our student population here at Lindbergh to Take the Challenge, we will be able to receive an additional $500 to purchase new PE equipment for the students to enjoy! We are only 5 students away! The deadline to register and/or raise donations for the American Heart Association is Friday, March 8th. Let’s all get healthier together!
Jump online, take the Challenge and be a Heart Hero!

Thank you so much for supporting healthy habits and the American Heart Association!
Mr. Harvey
Happy Monday everyone! I’m beyond excited about our March is Reading Month activities and celebrations at Lindbergh starting this week and going for the entire month! I loved the many posters and outfits I saw today! Make sure to keep reading and looking at the Reading Month calendar for daily activities to foster that love of reading. We also will be working towards earning raffle tickets to win a class Lego basket if most of our students participate. It is a complete “win-win!” If you need an extra calendar feel free to look on our blog underneath “March is Reading Month.”
In addition, make sure that during the month of March your child is bringing back their reading log everyday. Students will earn a raffle ticket for our Books for Bikes prize. If a student reads for their 20 mins. a day, they will receive one ticket. At the end of the month we will pull for a winner.
This week we will be wrapping up our Module 3 for math and continuing learning in other units! Listed below are some of the items we will be working on.
Reading- Making inferences within a text, using illustrations to support inferences, and irregular verbs.
Writing- Narrative Writing and Dr. Seuss writing
Social Studies- Learning about the lumber camps and lumbering industry within Michigan, as well as the iron and copper mines within the state. Look out for various lumbering activities and games.
Science-
In science this week we will learn about how people create new breeds of animals by selecting
certain traits and only having those animals have babies. Your child will learn in particular how the earliest dogs were medium-sized and wolf-like, but using selective breeding, we managed to get the many different dog breeds, from small dogs to big dogs, spotted dogs to plain dogs.
What makes selection possible is the fact that no two individuals are ever exactly alike–there are always small differences, and yet parents do pass on most of their traits to their offspring. You can help reinforce this learning at home by helping your child to notice these small differences in physical traits between siblings, cousins, and other family members, as well as to contemplate which traits have been passed on from one generation to the next.
Math- Solving two-step word problems involving multiplying single-digit factors and multiples of 10, Module 3 Test (Wednesday), and starting Module 4: Multiplication and Area.
Spelling- content words: growth, multiple, unit, infer, and detail
word pattern: silent /wr/ and /kr/- write, wrist, wrap, knife, and knot
Leader in Me- Emotional Bank Accounts and First Class!
Upcoming Events
Tuesday- Bring study guide for math (done or not done, we will be going over it in class) and ELG tutoring
Wednesday- Disney Day (wear your favorite Disney apparel and read fairy-tales), Module 3 Math Test, First Class, and Team Sports
Thursday- Career Day (dress for the job you want to have), PBIS Reward (Movie and a Junkie Snack), ELG tutoring, and choir.
Friday- Crazy Hat Day (wear a crazy hat or a hat with words), Bingo for Books 6:30pm-8pm, and Teacher of the Year applications due if nominating.
Happy Monday parents! Today was our Dr. Seuss day at Lindbergh elementary. As a school we honored Dr. Seuss and his birthday by with wearing red, white, and blue! Here are some great outfits we had today! Also, I have included the “Cat in the Hat” YouTube video in case you want something fun to watch at home!

Our annual Leadership Day is just around the corner! This is a day that our entire school will showcase what it means to be a Leader in Me School. During this day, visitors from other schools and districts will be stopping by to see our leaders at work. This year we have also decided to open this event up to the fantastic parents at Lindbergh. Even though the event will be open up to parents, you must RSVP for this event. Only the parents who have submitted their RSVP will be allowed in the building that day.
In order to RSVP, all you have to do is fill out the Google Form below. We hope you can make it!
