Happy Tuesday Parents!
We had another amazing day here in grade 3, we began with
math where we continued our unit on measurement. Building off our knowledge of
the centimeter and meter we learned about the kilometer. The students worked on
deciding whether or not different distances should be measured in meters,
centimeters, or kilometers.
In language we worked on our nouns! We talked about proper
nouns in comparison to regular nouns. The students completed a scavenger hunt
where they were required to find a noun and a proper noun for each letter of
the alphabet! The class worked so hard and came up with some really interesting
words!
After lunch, recess, and French we had UOI, we had a very
exciting day in UOI. We acted like pioneers and read a story about making
butter before we had the opportunity to make our very own butter! We began by
pouring cream into a jar and then we took turns working together to shake the
jar checking the jar periodically. The first time we looked it looked like
whipped cream! Then it looked a little bit like curdled milk! Then all of the
sudden we had butter and buttermilk! We rinsed the butter with water a few
times to ensure all of the buttermilk was out! Next, the class had to be very
patient while I handed out crackers with butter to each student, we decided to
wait for everyone to have their cracker so we could enjoy the first bite
together! The class loved the butter-they said it was even better than the
butter from the store, but it took a lot more work!
We ended the day with some journaling before heading off to
gym and completing agendas before kiss and ride.
