February Update!
We made Valentine's boxes to exchange Valentine cards on Valentine's Day!
We practiced compatible numbers to 20 in math with partners until we knew them really well!
In French, each morning we have a sentence to edit and correct. In groups we are working on a presentation of a Robert Munsch book that we enjoy.
In ELA, we are finishing publishing our own fractured fairy tales.
Here is some of the pottery we made in Pottery Club!
We have become experts on the subject of Ancient Egypt. Here is a picture of our names written in hieroglyphics.
The winter Olympics are here and we are keeping track of the medals on the bulletin board by the office. We have been keeping a journal called podium pages that talks about the athletes and sports. We have been watching some of the sports live on the smart board!
The third week of February was Festival du voyageur week. In gym we played tug of war. We ate pancakes. On Thursday we had activities all through the day. The activities were hot chocolate & bannock, making voyageur necklaces, bingo, gym, music, dancing in the library and sledding outside! We dressed up all week.
Let's hope it warms up soon so we can play outside at recess:)

January Update!
We made Inuksuks and northern lights. We used chalk pastels.
It took a long time to make dots that represent beads on our mittens.
Here are our stuffies! We brought them to school on pyjama day.
This is Jessica's boat! We all made a boat out of foil paper. We used marbles to test the boats and we hoped they wouldn't sink.
This is a hogan. We built it in groups of 3 during centres.
Here is an arch. It is the doorway to an igloo.
This is the design centre. We explored many shapes and First Nations designs. We built totem poles out of cardboard rolls.
We built tipis using sticks, leather strings and saran wrap.
We made roofs out of pipe cleaners. We tested their strength. The strongest one was the spider web shaped roof!
Swing it Baby! We counted how many times the baby swung depending on how far we let the swing go.
Here is the totem pole stencil.
The last centre was playing Tangrams on the iPads.
We have many math apps on the iPads now! We are working on multiplication. We are writing fractured fairy tales. We learned how to hoop dance in the gym. Robert Munsch is our French author study. We learned about what scribes and pharaohs did in Ancient Egypt. We are working on an art project in music for the symphony.

Our Awesome December!
We did posters of how to survive on a deserted island. We learned what we need to survive and how to work together.
We made presents and cards for 'someone special'!
We made mosaic snowmen because snowmen were the theme of our concert. A mosaic is usually made of tiles but we used tissue paper. We cut the tissue into little shapes.
We presented our 'How To' posters. Ask me what mine was about!
We studied continents and oceans. Some of the activities we did to learn them were a game on the iPad, naming them on a map, testing our friends, cutting and pasting them and cutting up an orange!
We are doing multiplication. It means 'groups of'. For example, 5 x 5 = 25 because 5 groups of 5 make 25.
We read fairy tales and practiced retelling them. Mme read some fractured fairy tales and we have to think of ideas to write our own in January!
We had our winter concert. We learned that it is not as hard as we thought to perform in front of an audience. We had to say our lines, sing, do actions, play a pretend baseball game, practice, play recorder and stand for 45 minutes but we had fun!
We had so much fun bowling in the afternoon on the last day!
-Grade 3 students, room 102
Here is a photo of the hamper we delivered for Adopt-a-Family.
Here is the 'before' photo on the day we decorated gingerbread houses with our grade 1 buddies!

November Journal Entries
It was so great to see all of you at the conferences! Here are our November journal entries. The students worked with a partner and had to co-operate!
Jersey Day - Today we have learned all sorts of new teams. There's Rods, Panthers, Jets, Hawks, Toronto Maple Leafs and more! Signed Ryker & Chase
This month at school we made O Canada booklets. It was fun. On the cover we drew things that represent Canada. We drew inside the booklets too. Some of the things we drew were flowers, people from a long time ago and crosses. We learned what the words mean. - Talia and Bradi B.
Les Fractions - Les fractions est comme ça, 1/2, un demi.
Shading - We cut our face in half. Then we shaded the other half.
Love, Juliana & Jessica
Today it's Jersey Day. We got to wear our own jerseys. We did an O Canada book. It was about Canadian stuff. We made a picture of us. From Brady P. and Elsir
We did a challenging art project. We had to cut our faces in half and draw the other half. On Jersey Day we had fun wearing the jerseys. By Braxton and Oscar
This month we went swimming 3 times. In swimming we learned how to do a lot of swimming. We did shading. Shading is so fun! - Emily & Carson
There's this day called Jersey Day and everybody wears jerseys with different teams! Mme cut a picture of our faces in half and we shaded the other half. We made notes on our monsters. We wrote letters to our monsters. - Kiera, Cassidy & Joshua
Shading is fun. I love shading. It is awesome. - Jaden & Colton
In November we had Jersey Day. I didn't wear a jersey but my sister's name is Jersey! It was fun and I wore not exactly a jersey but a sweatshirt with a type of team on it. I do not watch hockey, football or any other sports but I still like Jersey Day. - Pretyn & Holly
In November we watched Magic School Bus: Cold Feet. We learned about reptiles and that they have to move to warm places to keep moving. We also learned about the continents and the oceans. Signed, William and Andreas
Sara was absent.
Have a great week-end!
Oh, and don't forget about the math homework due on Monday:)
