Fairy Tale

What are the most important "Elements of a Story'? This is what our morning discussion was based on. From this, we each created a poster as a 'cheat sheet' for the back of our journals.  It included: characters, problem, theme, setting, solution and plot. This began our discussion around Fairytales. I read them "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." We could easily find the different elements in this story.  On computers they practiced their spelling words through using 'word document.'  In the afternoon they collected data with using a dice. With this data, they created bar graphs.  What is noise pollution and how does it affect living things? We each made a K.W.L chart in our Science book. Ask your child what they learned.  We started compliments last week. Each student gives another child a compliment. They really seem to enjoy this, as they practice giving and receiving kind comments.  Spelling words- Working with contractions: Red: she's, I'm...

Meet The Teacher

 I am so sorry that we can not meet in person this year, to talk about your child's goals. I am available through email and phone, so please do not hesitate to use those alternatives (lmparsons@cbe.ab.ca).   Our grade team has made a slide show that goes over our curriculum and to what to expect for this year. Please review it on our grade team website at : https://sites.google.com/educbe.ca/grade-3and4-at-bhs-2020/home   Reminder: There is NO SCHOOL TOMORROW for students.  Daily update: Today in Math we completed 'Number Detectives.' We represented a number of our choice in many different ways.  We went on a Fall walk this morning and collected leaves that were interesting to us. We then created 2 sponge art pieces: one for home and one for school. I will send these home on Monday.  Please go over your child's spelling test with them.  Have a great weekend!

Busy Learning

 We have been very busy in room 13 learning about fractions, lights and shadows, animal adaptations and countries around the world (and how they relate to the quality of life in Alberta)!  They also enjoyed creating some art for New Years. They started off by writing about their goals and things they look forward to for 2021. Some of them wrote 6 pages worth of ideas! To go with this writing, they created fire work art pieces. We will be putting these on display in our classroom.  Fractions seem to really be clicking in everyone's brains this week! We have been playing bingo and even made our own fraction kits. To make the fraction kits they started off with 6 equal strips. Each strip was then cut into: 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6 and we kept one as a whole. This allowed them to see and understand that all fractions are equal part of a whole.  In Science we worked with computers to look up definitions or words such as: light, shadow, translucent, transparent, opaque and ...
