Wednesday September 18

Next week the grade threes are going on their first field study. In preparation for this field study we have been working on journaling. This is an independent activity where students have a small task that they independently work on. The tasks vary from sketching, asking questions and thinking about what is around them. Today in the afternoon, we went outside to practice this skill. Each student found a spot away from another and worked on their task. In their journals, students were asked to look around and record what they saw, what they thought about and new wonderings. Many things were recorded to what they saw, many students could write about what they were thinking and some students were able to think of wonderings. Ask your child what they wrote about.



Reminders:
- Early dismissal tomorrow for parent teacher interviews
- Field study forms need to be handed in
- We still need 2 volunteers to participate in the field study next Wednesday. Please email the teacher if you are able to support

Thursday Feb. 6

Today in math we learned multiple strategies for multiplication. We learned that skip counting was a good tool for most of the class. for example: 4 x 5=?? 5, 10, 15, 20 Also 5x5= 25.We are only going up to 5x5. We started floor hockey in gym we started using bean bags but recently we switched to pucks.  How we do it is we find a partner and pass the puck or bean bag back and forth, some times we do passing around the gym in a circle and some times we do it up down the gym. We are reading Wonder we are almost done it it is a cool book because it has a bunch of different perspectives by different characters. Mattie, Oliver, Ariah Reminders Field study forms need to be in as soon as possible.

Week 7

Good afternoon Grade 3 Families,   Thank you to  all  our parents and caregivers for your continued support and encouragement as we plan, review, meet and assess our students.  It is just as much a learning curve for you as it has been for us and our students. We wouldn’t be able to be as successful as we are without you. The grade three teachers  appreciate the feedback received from parents through the survey and are continuing to modify and enhance our planning to make things easier for everyone.  The  survey  is  still available for those  who would still like to contribute their feedback.   It   should take only a few moments.    Link to  s urvey:   Grade 3 Parent Feed Back Survey     Week  7  Learning Plan:     Week 7 Learning Plan Link     Reminders:     Monday:  Meet up 1pm – Go through the week’s assignmen...
