    Grammar Lesson 25 - Plural Possessive Nouns

    Remember that a singular possessive noun has an /'s/ at the end.But that's a singular noun. What if the noun is plural? Well it'sactually really easy. Just put an /'/ (with no s) at the end.

    Example: singular: cat = cat'splural: cats = cats'

    Make each word possessive.

    SINGULAR PLURAL

    (1) dog ________________________

    Grammar Lesson 28 - Beginning Diagramming I

    What is a sentence? Do you know? ----- Every sentence must have at least onenoun and at least one verb. /Birds fly/ is a sentence because bird is a noun and flyis a verb.

    Let me show you how this works. I'm going to teach you how to draw a picture of asentence. We call a picture of a sentence a diagram.

    Here is a simple diagram:

    We write the words from the sentence onto the diagram. We write the noun onthe left line and the verb on the right line, like this:

    Now I want you to try. Diagram each of these sentences:

    (1) Wolves howl.

    (2) Bees buzz.

    (3) Canaries warble.

    (4) Dogs bark.

    (5) Cats meow.

    The birds fly fast.

    Yes, it is a sentence. A sentence has (1) a capital letter in the beginning.(2) a noun.(3) a verb.(4) some sort of punctuation at the end, like

    a period /./ or a question mark /?/ or an

    exclamation point /!/.

    In the sentence "The birds fly fast," point to each of the four things that show itis a sentence.

    Writing Numbers 24 - Adding Commas

    Commas are added to numbers by sticking them every three digits, starting at theRIGHT and moving to the LEFT. Look at the example:

    Add commas to the following numbers. Start at the right, count three numbers,and add a comma:

    348 011 907 710 348 222

    909 338 292 6 556 201 300

    8 610 934 557 892 332 999

    90 525 000 11 432 978

    Math Lesson 24b: Mixed Operations

    10 + 3 - 7

    In the problem above, there is a + sign and a - sign. How do you work a problem that is both +

    and - ? The trick is to start at the LEFT and work to the RIGHT.

    STEP 1: Add or subtract the first two numbers on the LEFT.

    In this case you are adding 10 + 3.

    STEP 2: Bring down the sign and the number that you didn't use, the sign and number on the

    RIGHT.

    In this case you are bringing down - 7.

    STEP 3: Now you have a new problem. Add or subtract the new problem and write the answer

    UNDER the new problem so that it looks like an upside-down triangle.

    So, 10 + 3 - 7 = 6. That was pretty easy, wasn't it?

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    14/80

    Add AND subtract. Remember to work from LEFT to RIGHT.

    Reading Lesson 20 - The Mirror of Matsuyama (a)

    Read and discuss the story with your teacher:

    A long, long time ago there lived in a quiet spot a young man and his wife. They had

    one child, a little daughter, whom they both loved with all their hearts. I cannottell you their names, for they have long since been forgotten; but the name of theplace where they lived was Matsuyama, in the Province of Echigo.

    It happened once, while the little girl was still a baby, that the father was obligedto go to the great city, the capital of Japan, upon some business. It was too far forthe mother and her little baby to go, so he set out alone, after bidding themgoodbye and promising to bring them home some pretty present.

    The mother had never been farther from home than the next village, and she couldnot help being a little frightened at the thought of her husband taking such a longjourney; and yet she was a little proud too, for he was the first man in all thatcountry-side who had been to the big town where the king and his great lords lived,and where there were so many beautiful and curious things to be seen.

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    33/80

    At last the time came when she might expect her husband back, so she dressedthe baby in its best clothes, and herself put on a pretty blue dress which she knewher husband liked.

    You may fancy how glad this good wife was to see him come home safe and sound,and how the little girl clapped her hands, and laughed with delight when she sawthe pretty toys her father had brought for her. He had much to tell of all thewonderful things he had seen upon the journey, and in the town itself.

    "I have brought you a very pretty thing," said he to his wife; "it is called a mirror.Look and tell me what you see inside." He gave to her a plain white wooden box, inwhich, when she had opened it, she found a round piece of metal. One side waswhite, like frosted silver, and ornamented with raised figures of birds and flowers;

    the other was bright as the clearest crystal. Into it the young mother looked withdelight and astonishment, for, from its depths was looking at her with parted lipsand bright eyes, a smiling happy face.

    "What do you see?" again asked the husband, pleased at her astonishment and gladto show that he had learned something while he had been away.

    "I see a pretty woman looking at me, and she moves her lips as if she was speaking,and - dear me, how odd, she has on a blue dress just like mine!"

    "Why, you silly woman, it is your own face that you see!" said the husband, proud ofknowing something that his wife didn't know. "That round piece of metal is called amirror. In the town everybody has one, although we have not seen them in thiscountry-place before."

    The wife was charmed with her present, and for a few days could not look into themirror often enough; for you must remember that as this was the first time shehad seen a mirror, so, of course, it was the first time she had ever seen thereflection of her own pretty face. But she considered such a wonderful thing far

    too precious for everyday use, and soon shut it up in its box again and put it awaycarefully among her most valued treasures.

    Years passed on, and the husband and wife still lived happily. The joy of their lifewas their little daughter, who grew up the very image of her mother, and who wasso dutiful and affectionate that everybody loved her. Mindful of her own little

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    34/80

    passing vanity on finding herself so lovely, the mother kept the mirror carefullyhidden away, fearing that the use of it might breed a spirit of pride in her littlegirl.

    She never spoke of it, and as for the father he had forgotten all about it. So ithappened that the daughter grew up as simple as the mother had been, and knewnothing of her own good looks, or of the mirror which would have reflected them.

    But by-and-by a terrible misfortune happened to this happy little family. The good,kind mother fell sick; and, although her daughter waited upon her, day and night,with loving care, she got worse and worse, until at last there was no doubt but thatshe must die.

    When she found that she must so soon leave her husband and child, the poorwoman felt very sorrowful, grieving for those she was going to leave behind, andmost of all for her little daughter.

    She called the girl to her and said, "My darling child, you know that I am very sick;soon I must die and leave your dear father and you alone. When I am gone, promiseme that you will look into this mirror every night and every morning; there you willsee me, and know that I am still watching over you." With these words she took themirror from its hiding-place and gave it to her daughter. The child promised, withmany tears, and so the mother, seeming now calm and resigned, died a short timeafter.

    Now this obedient and dutiful daughter never forgot her mother's last request,but each morning and evening took the mirror from its hiding-place, and looked in itlong and earnestly. There she saw the bright and smiling vision of her lost mother.Not pale and sickly as in her last days, but the beautiful young mother of long ago.To her at night she told the story of the trials and difficulties of the day; to herin the morning she looked for sympathy and encouragement in whatever might be instore for her.

    So day by day she lived as in her mother's sight, striving still to please her as shehad done in her lifetime, and careful always to avoid whatever might pain or grieveher.

    Her greatest joy was to be able to look in the mirror and say, "Mother, I have beento-day what you would have me to be."

    Seeing her look into the mirror every night and morning without fail, and seem to

    hold converse with it, her father at length asked her the reason of her strangebehaviour. "Father," she said, "I look in the mirror every day to see my dearmother and to talk with her." Then she told him of her mother's dying wish, andhow she had never failed to fulfill it. Touched by so much simplicity, and suchfaithful, loving obedience, the father shed tears of pity and affection. Nor couldhe find it in his heart to tell the child that the image she saw in the mirror was butthe reflection of her own sweet face, becoming by constant sympathy andassociation more and more like her dead mother's day by day.

    The Old Man and the Rice

    One chilly morning, a man went into the forest to gather wood for a fire. Histhoughtful wife had packed some delicious rice cakes for his lunch.

    After a long morning of wood chopping, the tired man sat down to enjoy the ricecakes. Suddenly, two cakes rolled out of his lunch box and disappeared into a holein the ground. The man raced to get them, but he stopped suddenly when he heard

    music coming from the hole.

    Rolling, rolling rice cakes,

    Very, very nice cakes!

    "What a beautiful song," thought the man as he peered into the hole, leaning overso far that he lost his balance and fell to the bottom. After landing, the manlooked up and saw hundreds of little mice.

    "Thank you for the delicious rice cakes," said one mouse gratefully. "Now pleaseaccept this," it said as it handed the man a small bag of rice.

    While the mice rolled the man out of the hole, they sang:

    Rolling, rolling rice man,

    Very, very nice man!

    When the proud man finally reached the top, he raced home. "That's a lovely littlebag of rice," his wife noticed, "but too small to do us much good." However, aftershe poured the rice into a bowl, the bag was still full. To everyone's surprise, itcontinued in this way again, and again, and again. Soon, the man and his wife had

    enough rice to last the rest of their lives because of some thankful little mice.*

    Science Unit 3: VertebratesLesson 5: Reptiles

    Let's talk about another group of vertebrates -reptiles*.

    Turtles, lizards, snakes, alligators, and crocodilesare all reptiles. Reptiles and amphibians may looklike the same kind of animal. If you saw a snakeand a frog, you might think they belonged to thesame group. But if you examined them moreclosely, you would find they are different.

    Amphibian skin is wet and a bit slimy. Reptile skinisn't slimy at all. It is dry and scaly and it canfeel quite rough.

    Have you ever seen a snake skin with no snake init? Scales are part of the outer layer of areptile's skin. It is made of dead cells (just likeour skin) and must be shed every now and then asthe reptile grows. Scales keep a reptile fromlosing water. Reptiles cannot breathe through

    their skin as amphibians do; reptiles use onlytheir lungs. Reptiles are like amphibians in thatthey lay eggs, but reptile eggs are tough andleathery. The tough shell allows reptiles to laytheir eggs on land. Thanks to tough, scaly skinand waterproof eggshells, reptiles can live inmany different places - in woods and deserts aswell as near water. Amphibians can't do that;they have to stay near water. But reptiles canroam around on land without drying out.

    Also, reptiles don't go through a metamorphosisas frogs and toads do. Baby reptiles usually looklike small adults ready to go out in the worldalone.

    Reptiles have wet skin. dry skin.

    Amphibian skin is slimy. scaly and rough.

    Reptile skin is slimy. scaly and rough.

    (2) Breathing:

    Amphibians breathe with lungs only. through their skin andwith lungs.

    Reptiles breathe with lungs only. through their skin andwith lungs.

    (3) Where they live:

    Amphibians must live near water. can live anywhere.

    Reptiles must live near water. can live anywhere.

    (4) Making babies:

    Amphibians lay their eggs in water. lay their eggs on land.Their babies go through Their babies look just

    a metamorphosis. like small grown ups.

    Reptiles lay their eggs in water. lay their eggs on land.Their babies go through Their babies look just

    Science Unit 3: VertebratesLesson 6: Birds

    Let's talk about another group of vertebrates - birds.

    Like fish, amphibians and reptiles, birds lay eggs. Their eggs have hard shells.Most (but not all) fish, amphibians and reptiles parents leave their eggs after theylay them. Birds do not. Birds stay with their eggs. They sit or lay on them to keep

    the baby growing inside the egg warm. After the baby chick hatches out of theegg, the parents feed it until it is big enough to take care of itself.

    Another difference between birds and fish, amphibians and reptiles is that birdsare warm blooded. The body temperature of fish, amphibians and reptiles changes

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    47/80

    depending on the temperature around them. Birds' temperatures stay the same allthe time no matter what the weather is or where they live.

    One of the things that help birds to stay warm is their feathers. There are soft,

    fluffy underneath feathers called down. Here is a baby bald eagle covered indowny feathers.

    As the baby eagle grows up, he will grow special contour feathers that will lay ontop of his downy feathers. You can see those contour feathers in the picture on

    the right. The contour feathers will lie smooth on its body. They will help to keepthe bird warm and will also help it to fly when it's old enough.

    Of course, not all birds fly. Penguins don't fly. Neither do ostriches or emus and afew other kinds of birds. But most birds do fly.

Another thing they all have in common is thateverything pictured here is a mammal. Do you know what a mammal is? -----

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    49/80

    Let's talk about the group of vertebratescalled mammals*.

    When you think of an animal it is likely to be amammal. People are mammals. Cats and dogs

    are mammals. So are farm animals such ascattle, goats, hogs, and horses. Mammals alsoinclude such fascinating animals as porcupines,gorillas, giraffes, rhinoceroses and kangaroos.

    Mammals are found to exist all over the worldin all different climates. Mammals such aschimpanzees and elephants dwell in tropicalregions. Arctic foxes, polar bears and manyother mammals make their home near the

    North Pole. Camels and coyotes live indeserts. Some mammals even live in the seasuch as dolphins, seals and whales. One groupof mammals, the bats, can fly.

    These characteristics are common to all mammals:

    (1) Mammals nurse their babies. They feed them on the mother's milk. Mammals

    have to eat a lot of food to maintain their high body temperature.(2) Most mammals give their young more protection and training than do otheranimals.

    (3) Only mammals have hair. All mammals have hair at some time in their life,though in certain whales it is present only before birth.

    (4) Mammals have a larger, more well-developed brain than do other animals. Somemammals, such as chimpanzees, dolphins, and especially human beings, are highlyintelligent.

    (5) Mammals are able to move around using limbs.

    (6) Last but not least, mammals are warm-blooded. Their body temperature remainsabout the same all the time, even though the temperature of their surroundings maychange. Birds are also warm-blooded, but animal groups such as fish, birds, reptilesand amphibians are not. On the next page, we'll talk about that a little bit more.

    Lesson taken in part from: http://www.readyed.com.au/Sites/zoo/mammal.htm

  • 7/27/2019 3rd Grade Worksheets - Week 6 of 36

    50/80

    Humans are warm-blooded animals,so are all other mammals, to acertain extent, and birds. Howeverwarm blood is not really thequestion, many reptiles have blood

    far warmer than ours, but only onhot days.

    In fact, blood temperature ismerely a reflection of bodytemperature. The important thingabout mammals and birds is thatthey maintain a constant internal temperature.

    Reptiles and many other animals, particularly most insects live at the temperature of the

    world around them - cold when it is cold and hot when it is hot.

    Mammals maintain their inner temperature by burning food through digestion and theystay cool by sweating, panting and changing postures and place in the world. Sweating andpanting work by generating heat loss through evaporating water; changing posture allowsmammals to control to some extent the heat absorbed from the world around them; whilechanging position simply means seeking shade or shelter when it is too hot.

    Being warm-bloodedgives mammals a

    distinct advantage inmay habitats, allowingthem to be active whenreptiles are hardly ableto move. It also allowsmammals to live inhabitats where reptilescannot live at all, suchas the arctic, mountaintops, etc.

    Only mammals sweat,but not all mammals

    have the same number of sweat glands. For instance while primates have sweat glands allover their bodies, cats and dogs only have then in their feet and golden moles and whalesdon't have any.

    Science Unit 3: VertebratesLesson 8: Mammal Teeth

    Did you know that most of the time you can tell what a mammal eats just by lookingat his teeth? There are three main kinds of teeth - incisors, canines, and molars.

    Molars are good for grinding up plant foods - fruits and vegetables. For examplean animal that eats a lot of grass is probably going to have a lot of molars in theirmouth. Animals that only eat plants are called herbivores. Herbivores are animalslike elephants and deer and gorillas and rhinoceroses. Are you an herbivore? Doyou only eat plants? -----

    Carnivores are meat eaters. Some carnivores hunt for and kill other animals sothat they can eat them. Other carnivores wait until they find a dead creature toeat. Carnivores have LARGE incisors for cutting and LONG, SHARP canines fortearing. They don't have hands to hold their food like you and I do. All they haveis their teeth. They use those long, sharp teeth to rip the meat off of deadanimals. (Hey, they have to eat, right? And these kind of animals need to eat meatto be healthy.) Are you a carnivore? Do you eat only meat? -----

    Omnivores are creatures that eat a variety of food. They eat plants foods, like

    carrots and lettuce and potatoes and apples and bananas. And they eat animalfoods, like eggs and chicken and fish and meat. Bears are omnivores. Bears eatthings such as berries and mushrooms and salmon (fish) and deer. Omnivores needall three kinds of teeth for their diet. They have a lot of molars, but they alsohave small incisors and canines, too. Are you an omnivore? Do you eat plant andanimal foods? -----

    These five Japanese islands lay in the Ring of Fire. Look at the small red andyellow triangles in the map above. Everywhere you see the triangles is a placewhere lots of earthquakes happen or where there are volcanoes. Most of thevolcanoes on our planet and most of the earthquakes that happen in the world areright there going in a line all around the Pacific Ocean, making a sort of ring aroundit. That, in fact, is why we call this the "Ring of Fire".

    Can you find Japan on this map? ----- There are a lot of triangles on Japan, aren'tthere? ----- That is because Japan has a lot of earthquakes and volcanoes.

    Because of this, the Japanese government has worked very hard to make sure thatthe buildings in Japan are very strong so that they will not collapse in an

    earthquake. And the people that live in Japan are supposed to keep emergencysupplies ready - things such as water, food, a flashlight, a radio, a first aid kit...And they are also advised to not put heavy things up high where they might fall andhurt somebody. Schools have evacuation drills several times a year so thatchildren and teachers will be ready for an emergency, such as a big earthquake.

    Travel Japan - Lesson 4Cherry Blossoms

    "In much of Japan, the flowering cherry trees (which the Japanese call sakura)come into full bloom around the beginning of April. April is the month when thenew school year starts for Japanese children; it's also the month when companiesstart their new business years and when many new graduates start to work. So thecherry blossoms make people think of new beginnings. When they are in bloom,people make special visits to parks and other spots with many cherry trees; oftenthey have picnics under the branches with family and friends.

    "Japan has more types of cherry trees than any other country, over 200 in all. Theblossoms are pickled and used to make a hot drink served on special occasions, andthe leaves are pickled and used as the wrapping for sweets.

    "The sakura start blooming in the south at the end of March and work their waynorth to Hokkaido in May. This helps people plan their flower-viewing outings.
