Happy Monday Parents!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We had a very eventful day in grade 3! We began with math where we continued learning about area. The students learned about square units, and how to calculate area based on the number of squares inside of a shape.

In language we focussed on verbs! We began by refreshing our memory of what a verb is (what a person, place, or thing does) by playing a game. The class worked in groups and were given a place, they were then required to come up with some verbs that are associated with that place! We had some amazingly creative responses (for example whisper at a movie theatre, or operate at a doctor’s office!)  The class then wrote down their spelling words in their agendas before recess.

After lunch, recess, and French the class came back and had time to work on their pioneer poems during UOI. I am very proud of all of the learning demonstrated throughout these poems! The students have been very creative!

After second lunch and recess the class had more time to finish up their poems before gym, agendas and kiss and ride!
