The students did a fabulous job connecting what they learned in Language to authentic learning opportunities in school. First, they persuaded Mrs. MacAulay to allow us to have popsicles (giant freezies) after we finished our EQAO testing. Then, the students wrote me a letter to share their opinion of homework with me and state whether we should continue with homework in the month of June or not.
It was unanimous! Not one child wanted to continue into the month of June. Some of the reasons were very valid while others made me giggle! Nonetheless, there will be no homework given in June.
After the 6 days of EQAO testing the 3 grade 3 classes enjoyed some fresh air and collaborated on a group dance. Ask your child to sing the catchy song to you and even show you the actions to the song.
The forecast was to have been a nice day so we thought the freezies would have been a welcomed treat after our dance. As you can see in the photo below, the weather wasn't cooperating but most still enjoyed the time outside of the classroom with all the grade 3s.
Below is a photo of our last visit to the Learning Commons. Ask your child how an ozobot can travel along each and every line that was created.
Not one of our best anchor charts but our class wrapped up our unit on plants by diving deeper into the process of photosynthesis. Next week, we will extend our thinking by connecting to the importance of soil in our lives.
