June News
Mme Constant's class
I can't believe it's June!
Take a look at what we will be doing for the last month of Grade 3:
In French, we are currently working on a letter for the grade 2s. As a way to connect with younger students in the school and to alleviate some anxiety for them, the Grade 3s are using their letter writing skills and to share an inside look of what to expect in Grade 3. The final projects will be up and available to read on Fresh Grade within the next few weeks.
In English, we are tying in some science! As we are anxiously awaiting our Painted Lady caterpillars the students are reading and learning about butterflies. There are so many varieties! Our final writing assignment is a butterfly report. Don't forget to check out your child's Fresh Grade account to see the fun we had with our script writing. I recorded each groups' play for you to see.
June is a great month in math. We are currently wrapping up our geometry unit and will go back to review adding and subtracting to 1000. Please let me know if you'd like me to put together a "home work" or summer package if you're interested in working on your child's math skills over the summer.
In Science, we are currently wrapping up the Rocks and Minerals unit. We are so excited to welcome some new guests into our classroom very soon; Painted Lady caterpillars! We will have the wonderful experience of observing the butterfly life cycle.
Finally, in Social Studies we are finishing up our cities and moving on to our final unit which is decision making within a community. We will discuss the importance of cooperating, sharing, giving back and living together peacefully.
Field Trips
There will be two more local field trips for our class. The hot dog lunch is being provided by the Fafard family on June 16th and we will also be heading to get slushies (my treat) the folloowing week. These field trip forms will be sent home early next week as I will require parent permission for both activities.
I will email all parents to let you know when the forms have been sent home so that you can take a look in your child's home folder and backpack when you get a chance.
