Science

We jump started our next unit in Science on Plants and Soil. Yesterday students learned how to begin the process of planting seeds in some peat pellets. We also took this opportunity to co-create the procedure. Over the next few weeks, we will be watering and observing our bell peppers and cherry tomatoes grow. 

Day 1 of planting bell peppers and cherry tomato mix.


Social Studies

In our current unit on Living and Working in Ontario, we are learning about the three different landform regions we have here in Ontario, and investigating the natural features of the environment influence land use and the type of employment that is available in a region (e.g., mining, forestry, manufacturing, agriculture, etc).

*This website has many links to information and videos about Ontario's land form regions and industries  http://vlcguides.wcdsb.ca/Gr3SStudies/StrandB

We will be wrapping up time by mid-week. Although this was a relatively short unit, we have been working on time in our Morning Brainwork since September. In lieu of a unit test, I will be conducting interviews with students.

Students in Grade Three are reviewing telling time to the hour, half, quarter after and quarter to, as well as learning how to tell time to 5 minute intervals.

Later in the week, we will begin our unit on transformation geometry and continue to make references to fractional names (e.g., quarter turn, half turn, three quarter turn).
