Got a D3300 for my BDay today! Can someone explain to me basically what Shutter Speed, Exposure, and ISO do/change! thanks!
You're going to love it! I have one as well. The best way to learn is to play with all the controls yourself and figure it out that way, that's what I did and I love mine :)

Shutter speed is how long the shutter is open (quite obviously).
Exposure is almost the same but used more in telling someone if the photo looks too bright or too dark.
High ISO means faster photo, less motion blur but more grain. I like to leave mine on a low number but compensate for longer shutter speed by following the object.

Okay...so shutter speed an exposure are basically the same thing. When someone asks "what was the shutter speed?" or "how long did you expose it for?" they are asking the same thing. It's like asking someone if they drive a manual or stick shift. Aperture is the amount of light that the camera takes in...if you make a circle with your index finger and thumb and then make that circle smaller and smaller, you'll get the idea of what happens inside the camera. ISO allows you to shoot in darker areas without using a ridiculously long shutter speed; for instance, if you wanted to shoot a car at night, but not use the flash (which distorts the shot and brings attention to yourself), at ISO 100 or 200 you'd need a shutter speed of about 1 second, and unless you have a tripod with you or another surface to rest the camera on, it's impossible to keep it perfectly still for a second. If you crank the ISO up to 1600 or 3200, you can shoot with a faster shutter speed, and the lighting will appear the same as at ISO 100, but there will be more noise. So usually if possible I try to shoot at ISO 100 or 200.

I find my D3300 perfectly comfortable as it is. I'd think that a battery grip would make it more bulky, so I wouldn't go for one.

I don't think a battery grip is necessary.
