How to Blow a Bubble!

Here is our "How to Blow a Bubble" bulletin board! The students were given a piece of bubble gum last week during language class and were shown by a few bubble-blowing Grade 3 experts how to blow a perfect bubble. Quite a few were successful! The students then had to write the bubble-blowing procedure for our procedural writing unit!

Christmas Poinsettas!

The glitter came out today to jazz up our Christmas poinsettas! Don't look too closely as it might spoil your surprise Christmas morning!

Letters to Santa!

Big piece of mail headed to the North Pole tomorrow from the kids in 3A! Hopefully Santa will get the letters in time!

Forces in Nature Using Book Creator!

Having finished their science research about forces caused by natural occurences (landslides, lightning, tidal waves, erosion), the students began having fun today presenting their findings using the Book Creator app on the iPads. The plan is to complete these ibooks this week! The students will be working on their books during some of the language blocks this week.

How Long Does It Take the Grade 3 Classes to Walk 1km?

Here were their predictions:

Mrs. Frangione and I were relieved it didn't take 11 hours! The two classes walked 1 km on Friday afternoon around the soccer field and it took us 13 minutes! The students discovered that 1 km roughly equals 1000 steps. Our measurement explorations conclude this week!
