UPPER PRIMARY - Welcome to Grade 3!

-

We would like to introduce you to,
The Reverential Rhinos of Grade 3!
They are a fun and friendly bunch with inquisitive minds that come from all walks of life.
The academic year began with some newfound responsibilities as they stepped into their 'Upper Primary' shoes...which they filling beautifully so far.
For the first two days of school we took time to become familiar with one another and the Grade 3s got to explore their new classroom and working environment.
Here are their 'All about me' posters for their Unit books.

As a team they came up with 'Essential agreements' to help create a healthy and safe learning environment for the rest of their Grade 3 year.

We did some work in our Math and English books, learning how to structure our books and sharing our holiday news. 
📚
It has been a great start to the year and we look forward to welcoming our friends traveling from afar to their new Grade 3 class. 
❤
Upcoming events
1st September '23 - Information presentation by school board and PTA, Parent Teacher Conferences and election of class representatives

SWIMMING The excitement was real on Monday, the long awaited anticipation for their swimming lessons had finally arrived and our Grade 3s were bursting at the seams with enthusiasm. Their swimming coaches gave feedback on how great all our little swimmers were, good job guys! LAMENTATION Going back to 1930, the Reverential Rhinos got in touch with their emotions and feelings after watching a movement piece by Martha Graham called, Lamentation. I was super impressed with their descriptive words to explain what they felt after watching the video. THANK YOU🍬 Some spoils from Greece! We are super thankful for how thoughtful and caring our fellow classmates are, bringing back a piece of his holiday from Greece to share with us, YUMMY! 🌍🌎🌏 Pop into the STEM room and check out the Grade 3...

  My Wonder Wall Brick Learning about the natural features of the earth and what is classified as natural phenomena, the Reverential Rhino's had many interesting questions about the 'hazardous side' of nature. They took to their Wonder Wall and built it higher with questions to help get them started on their inquiry cycle.  - Do natural disaster's happen on other planets? - Could lava from a volcanic eruption cause a wild fire? - How do tornado's come about? Who said Mathematics can't be tasty!? Some excitement in class to aid us in learning about data collection, interpretation, graphs and diagrams. We used marbles - no, not the ones that roll on the ground, the ones made by Meiji that you put in your mouth - to help us sort, classify and display our recordings in the form of a chart, diagram and graph.  During English, we explored various connective words that help us join sentences together to make them understandable and more appealing. Ballet Dancers As par...
