Hello Everyone,
Our school marked the liturgical season of Lent by receiving ashes on Ash Wednesday. Ask your child about connections they have made to the story of Jesus the shepherd and the lost sheep.

In Math, we have finished off our unit on patterning. We looked at the question below as a class to discuss how all questions do not look the same so we need to use what we already know to set ourselves up for as much success as possible. It was interesting to see that some thought a different question was being asked because one was presented horizontally and one was presented vertically. (3a in the photo)


We briefly summarized what the class recalled about dividing things in equal parts to make a whole which led nicely into our next unit on fractions. Fractions as part of a set will be the focus in grade 3.

 In Language, we are busy writing an adventure story as a class to ensure that when the students are writing independently they have a good model to refer to. All the necessary parts are highlighted with a focus on the introduction to attract the reader plus the proper way to use quotation marks.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER.......
Our class is doing the Swim to Survive program on April 12th, 19th and 26th. These dates are later than Mrs. G's grade 3 class. Permission notes will be sent home right after the March Break.

All library books are due back to the school!!!! Many still are not returning them despite many reminders of the weekly date that has been set since the beginning of the year.
