Week 11

Good afternoon Grade 3 Families, 
Can you believe its June already? Time has flown by in many ways, but in others, it has come to a standstillAs we communicate with our families, teachers have noticed that priorities are constantly changingSpending time with family, being outside, and meeting up with cohort families has taken precedent over schoolSome families are done with constantly pushing their children and dealing with the stress of trying get all school work done. Please know we understand and its okay to stop and breath and take a break. Really . . . it’s okay.  
Knowing that some of our students are struggling with their drive to complete tasks, we have modified some of the ways we will be presenting the work. For example, you will notice that Math will be more of a review choice board, like the options choice board. We ask that students choose a math task each day and record the task in the chart. If there is work to share, take a picture or video. We are hoping to engage our students while providing some time to review the skills we have learned prior to schools closing as well as after.  
In addition, we noticed that students really enjoy our Friday meetings with all grade threes. Therefore, the last two Fridays, during our meetup, we will have an opportunity for students to showcase a talent. This is completely optional. All students are welcome to join and watch, but only those who fill out the form prior to those dates will have the opportunity to share something special they have been working on during this time. To ensure the content and activity that students will be sharing is appropriate, we ask that parents first discuss the talent with their child, plan for opportunities to practice and fill out the attached form. Each student will be given up to 2 minutes to showcase for the other grade 3’s. We are excited to see what hidden talents our students have.

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...

Friday September 6

Students have had an amazing week getting to know each other, the class routines and reviewing concepts taught last year. For example . . . . . . in Math we have been playing two Math games to review place value. Have your child teach you either 'guess my number' or 'place value war'. By the end of grade three students in grade three should be able to understand, represent and say numbers up to the thousands place value (9 999). One of the key things that we worked on when we say numbers is to avoid using the word 'and'. Have your child explain why. . . . in Art we have been reviewing colour. We already know colours but we reviewed which colours are considered primary and secondary colours. We then identified warm and cool colours. We should have our art pieces completed for parent teacher interviews. . . . in writing we are getting back into the groove of remembering capitals at the beginning of sentences and periods at the end of sentences. Students comp...
