Third Grade Communities 
Study Program

"A Training Course for Third Graders"

This study program was written as an integrated curriculum, incorporating Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences.  An attempt was made to present several activities for each discipline, while emphasizing the skills for third grade.

This course was developed by a retired grade school teacher and member of the Daffodil Festival.  

The rationale for this course is because the third grade course of study in Social Studies has traditionally been the communities.  While studying communities, recreation is usually an interesting part of the unit.  One of the entertainment opportunities for citizens of Pierce County is the Daffodil Festival, held each year in April.  This unit of study will familiarize students with the festival, its origins, its history, that activities of festival week and how they can become a part of the celebration.
