New Jersey 3rd Grade ELA: What Students Learn

In 3rd grade, New Jersey students develop foundational English Language Arts skills that carry through the rest of their schooling. The NJ Student Learning Standards for ELA guide what students are expected to know and do by the end of Grade 3. StudyPug's lessons and practice problems are built around these standards.

Key 3rd Grade ELA Topics in New Jersey

  • Reading literature: story elements, character traits, and theme
  • Reading informational text: main idea, key details, and text structure
  • Writing: opinion pieces, informative writing, and narratives
  • Vocabulary: context clues, word relationships, and academic language
  • Speaking and listening: discussions, presentations, and collaborative conversations

Preparing for the NJSLA-ELA in Grade 3
