Monday, January 12

Thank you for returning the Jungle Sports permission form so quickly!  They will be setting up in our gym next week!

In Math, we are still going through multiplication and division strategies.  It is important for children in grade 3 to learn their multiplication to x9 and division to 81 divided by 9.  In class, we go through strategies, use arrays and number lines to model what it means.   We will be continuing this to the end of next week.

In Language, we will be looking at narrative writing.  We will be listening to different versions of Little Red Riding Hood, and starting soon, we will be making our own versions by changing the character, setting and even the problem (and how it is solved!).  This will be done in class, using Book Creator.  We are going to have a lesson looking at quotation marks to help understand how they can be included in our work.

We will be continuing with drama this week, playing a variety of games.  Also, we are looking at nutrition during Health class, badminton during Gym and forces during Science (we will get a chance to play with some magnets this week!)
