Reaching for the stars
//Hello 3B!
Math sheets will be coming home this evening to add to the homework tasks for this month! Please do not stress to get the sheets done before Pesach break! They can be handed in once we return from the break.
If your child had their orange folder at school today, it was placed in there! If not, it is in their note tote/backpack!
//Hello 3B Families,
I’d like to start by saying that even when I ditched my coat in March and was wearing short sleeves, I continued to remind everyone that we would get another dump of snow… and here we are!
With the snow falling, it felt like a great time to brush off this pun and give you a quick little SNOW and tell!
In no particular order, here are a few class updates!
We absolutely loved having you visit our classroom on Innovation Day! All of the structures that the students built were so incredibly strong. It’s impressive to see what these students can do with just newspaper and tape!
In Math, we have been focusing on our multiplication. We love to find ways to play games in Math class! Most recently, we have been playing Cardio-Math (where two teams race to the board to solve a wheel of Math problems) and Multiplication Face Offs (where you work with a partner and each flip one card at a time to create a multiplication problem). It’s hard to believe it with today’s weather… but just 2 weeks ago, we were outside doing Multiplication with chalk!
This week we participated in part one of a two part workshop with Miss Brigitte in order to develop our research skills. This week’s focus was all about using keywords when using search engines. We were able to practice these skills hands-on with our classroom iPads and a series of research questions presented by Miss Brigitte.
The students were reminded about Kiddle.co – a child friendly search engine!
In Language Arts, we have been working very hard throughout the term on our Novel Study! We have been enjoying our books through partner reading, small group reading, and independent reading time! We will be wrapping up our Novel Study shortly and shifting into a seriously cool mythology unit! Morah Lianna has already connected with Morah Dina about cross-curricular art projects…. stay tuned!
Lastly, something to look forward to…
In Social Studies, we will be learning about timelines / sorting events chronologically. We will be kicking off this unit with a mini assignment of creating a personal timeline. This is always a fun activity for the students and I always enjoy hearing about what life events my students choose to highlight! (My example always includes chopping all of my hair of the week before I started school!).
We love when we know that you visit our classroom blog! Please feel free to leave a comment below!
//Hello Grade 3 Families,
Below you will find the April BINGO board. You will notice that it is much shorter than normal. This is to account for a shorter month (yay for Passover!) AND some additional non-BINGO homework. As noted on the BINGO board, we will be sending home some personalized Math and Language Arts homework to target specific concepts, areas of need, and to potentially work through our class novel study.
As always, please reach out should you have any questions!

Happy April Fool’s Day everyone!
A new April BINGO board will be distributed this week! Please make sure all March boards and duotangs are brought to school tomorrow to be handed in!
//We have jumped right into our Strong and Stable Structures unit in preparation for Innovation Day!
We worked with Marshmallows and Toothpicks to learn about strong shapes and building strong structures!
We have taken the information we learned from this activity and applied it to the designing and building of newspaper bridges!
Will the bridges be able to hold up THREE heavy textbooks!?
We look forward to sharing our projects with you on Wednesday morning!
Please join us in the classroom at 9:00AM on Wednesday, March 20!

//Can you believe how fast Chanukah flew by!?
Here is a snapshot of some of the Chanukah magic from the last 8 days in Grade 3…
This is Morah Lianna’s favourite Math problem! Can you solve it!?
Of course, you saw us in our Chana Zelda performance on Tuesday evening!
…and what would Chanukah be without some sufganiyot!?
We hope you had a lovely holiday! Shabbat shalom!
