=Welcome DCE 3rd Grade Team!!!= Please look on the left hand side under the "search box" and click on one of the following pages - a brief description of each page is as follows:
 * __9 Weeks at a Glance__ - A spreadsheet that puts it all together. It's a Year at a Glance for every subject...all in one place!
 * __Learning Progression__ - This page will show you the learning progression for each Unit of Study within each 9 weeks
 * __Planning with EUS__ - also know as "Planning with Essential Units of Study". Here you will find a "how to" that I used this summer while on the Math Writing Committee. It is very useful, and exactly what we are to do with backwards design in mind.
 * __Summer Training Sessions__ - This page can be viewed as a "technology jigsaw". We all went to different training sessions this summer and this is where we can share the information that we learned. You can also link resources or websites that you received in the training.
 * __Essential Questions__ - This page will show you the Essential Questions for each Unit of Study. Print and Post in your classroom as needed.

If you would like to crate a new page, please do and add a description of the page on this Home page.

=I know what some of you are thinking...."I'm on this wiki thing now what?"= I promise a wiki page is fun and such a neat technology tool to use when sharing information with a group of people. So here are some housekeeping things...
 * 1) You are an active part of this wiki. You have a voice and we want to see it! You can add your thoughts to this wiki. Here's how:
 * click on the desired page (left side as described above)
 * click on the "Edit" tab (far right). Once you do that the page becomes like a word document that you can type in with an Editor bar at the top of your screen.
 * type away & edit away
 * press "Save" in the "Editor" bar at the top of your screen (far right).
 * the page is updated with your thoughts now on the wiki

=A BIG thank you to Beth Chinderle...= This wiki was inspired by Beth because she used one similar with our Math Writing Team this summer. Several of these documents are straight off her wiki. :)

=Purpose or Goal of this WIKI:= To unite the 3rd grade team in communication and planning with the Essential Units of Study.
