DOSS Routine

Students will master the Social Studies standards for third grade through a routine that we call DOSS (Daily Oral Social Studies). Most weeks, students will get the blue DOSS sheet on Monday and there will be a quiz on Friday. (Please pay attention to the newsletter as some weeks may differ.)  Here's what you need to know about Social Studies for this year:
  • Social Studies is for a grade (A,B,C,D,F)
  • You can access the Social Studies text book through our blog (See link to the right)   Username: ssguest 3   Password: grade3 (This is also in the back of their planner.)
  • There will always be a section of the weekly newsletter informing you of the DOSS focus for each week (page number, topic and chapter)
  • Students keep their blue DOSS Sheet in the HW folder all week so they can study
  • If students study their DOSS Sheet and participate in class conversations, they will be successful on the weekly quizzes (we are not trying to trick them) :)

This is an example of the week DOSS Sheet.  
Students use a textbook in class and can access it online. Link is to the right.
