Week 21

This week we started our very own stories in writing. We started by making a character profile and then completing a story plan. Next week we will be starting our first drafts! Ask me what character I made up for my story.

  


In gym we started gymnastics, we have been practicing different ways to move our bodies like log rolls, pencil rolls, jumps and all sorts of other things including only using the upper part of our bodies to move us. We all look so stylish for gym because we have to wear our pants tucked in!


In math we started multiplication! We are finding that multiplication is filled with patterns!

  

  


In science this week we used Lego to graph the data we collected about how far our catapults shot. It was difficult to figure out how to do this at the beginning but we used our growth mindsets and figured it out!



  

    

  

    



This week we had some birthdays! Happy Birthday A-M, S, & K!!

    

This week we earned our free choice, some people also earned technology! It was a great week in grade 3/4!

Next week is Valentine's day! We will be having a secret Valentine activity where students are given a classmates name and they have to secretly watch them and then write them a nice anonymous note. Speaking of Valentine's Day, if you choose to bring in Valentines, please bring one in for everyone in the classroom and we are asking that there is no candies or chocolates attached (unless you want to give them to your teachers of course) due to safety reasons. Since it is a day to celebrate kindness we feel it is important to make sure everyone feels loved and important.


VERY IMPORTANT: Monday is our field trip. DO NOT be late!! We are leaving first thing in the morning to the Arts Commons to see explorer Kenny Broad!

We will be leaving at 8:45am make sure to eat a big healthy breakfast as we might not have an opportunity for a snack at the theatre.

You will need to bring:
A big lunch! And a warm jacket.

We will return to the school around 12:00pm


Until next time, Love,

Room 7 & 8

Have a great weekend!
