Curriculum update

In Mathematics, we are continuing our unit on Patterns. In grade 3, the patterns become more complex, with more than 2 attributes changing (colour, shape, position). The students will be asked to identify/explain the attributes that change and extend patterns. They will also explore number patterns using a 100 chart and a T-Chart. There will be a math assessment this Wednesday on all the concepts taught thus far. This week, we started reviewing the Spelling List 3 words. Just a reminder that all spelling pages for the week are due on Friday. As well, students should be reading every evening for at least 15 minutes and recording their read pages in the reading log. In Science, the students will learn about Forces causing Movement. The big ideas of the unit are: - There are several types of forces that cause movement - Forces cause objects to speed up, slow down or change direction - Forces in nature (wind, water) can have a large impact of humans and the environment. Thank you for your ongoing support. Sincerely, Ms. Bertone
