During the 2000-2001 school year, there are four third grade classes here at Rockburn. The teachers are, Mrs. Lomax, Mrs. Kupiec, Mrs. Minns, and Mrs. Frenkil.
Third grade is a major leap from the primary grades.
Third graders learn to accept more responsibility and more homework, too. They learn to become independent writers and editors. In the primary grades, reading is the key component. When the children get to third grade, writing becomes the main focus. The children are engaged in many exciting and worthwhile writing experiences.
