Helmets Keep us Safe!

We prepared for Bike Safety week by going over the importance of wearing a helmet. The health nurses came to speak to the students about protecting their heads while riding anything with wheels. They also did a demonstration using a raw egg. One egg was dropped with a helmet and one was dropped without.

It is also important to wear a helmet that fits properly. The students were taught the three things to check. Volunteers from the Devon Bears Club came to check helmets on Friday.

This week in Language Arts, the students worked on publishing their fairy tales by typing them and sharing them with us for editing. We have been meeting with students individually to go through their stories, checking them over for proper capitalization, punctuation and spelling.

In Math, we finished our unit on Multiplication. We started Measurement by introducing the students to standard and non-standard units.

We have finished reading and taking notes about the culture in Ukraine. We will be concluding our unit with our field trip to Ukrainian Village on May 23rd.

To kick off our Life Cycles Unit we planted sunflower seeds. The students will be required to take care of their own plant. 

This week we completed 2 more handwriting letters - Hh and Kk. 

We also had some time to work on our memory book pages. The kids have been creating google slide pages with collages of pictures of themselves from each month. These pages will be printed off in colour and included in their Grade 3 Memory Book binder.

Here are the super readers for the week! Way to go!
