Third Graders,
Read the article, "Over the River" in your Time for Kids this week. Think about the MAIN idea, or message, the author is trying to say in the article. Make a claim based on the main idea that you read. Then, use evidence from the article to PROVE that claim. Use your reasoning to explain how your evidence relates to the claim you made. Example- Bemis is a great school. I know this because students are always engaged in their learning, which makes me think that Bemis must be great. I also see students giving their best on the work in the hallway. This makes me believe that students care about their work, which means they are great students! After you are finished, ask questions to other classmates, make a connection to their thinking, or add on to their thinking.

I think that there are different ways why they made this bridge I think they built it to make it more stable from the old one

What makes me say that is that is i have seen the England bridge and it always falls down and always gets rebuild so i think there are many ways they made the England bridge.

I think they are trying to say is they want to tell us they went raked so hard with 5,000 on the bridge and how hard it is.

I think the main idea that the author was trying to tell us was that this new NY bridge will be safer than the last. My evidence is Brock Obama said " Sometimes you can see the water from cracks in the cement. Number two is the motorist said "the new bridge will be better and smoother than the old one.

I think the author is trying to say how many people will be making the the New NY bridge,where does the New NY bridge take place and the structure of how to make the New NY bridge.My claim is that the people who are making the New NY bridge are very hardworking is because in the article it showed a picture of the New NY bridge now done and it looks so pretty with no cracks,no bad color and it looks perfect.Another evidence is that it went though a big structure and that means hardworking.

The NYC bridge is taking over the Hudson River. It is only being called NYC bridge because they have not named it as yet. It is 3 miles long. It's builders thought it 100,000 vehicles would cross the structure each day but 138,000 vehicles cross it every day. The tapan zee was built to last 50 years. It has-and more. But it's time has run out. Politicians discussed whether it was worth billions of dollars. My claim is that they should because if they did not the old one could breath away when the cars are on the bridge and if they built the new one there's less chance of it breaking away ,so, that's my claim why they should build the new one to help everyone.

My claim is be hardworking and protect other people my evidence is because I the article it said their protecting for birds by putting cameras that are looking at the birds to keep them safe they are also making special space for birds nests so they can find space to live and grow their baby's also for my second part of my claim for hardworking the workers did not say we can not build the bridge

The main idea of the chapter talks about building a new bridge called the New NY Bridge, over the Hudson River. This bridge will be replacing the old Tappan Zee Bridge.

I think that the Main thing is that they are building a Bridge over the Hudson River in New York City. My reason is because Barack Obama said to The new Bridge will be safer and smoother' for the motorists, he says. My other Reason is It says that the Bridge is being Built next to another old bridge which will be token down. My last but not least reason is they said in the article With the budget of 3.9 billion, the New NY Bridge is the biggest bridge project in New York State history.
