April 23 -26

This week we continued to work on our country research. We were taking sketch notes using pictures and words. We were researching animals in our countries, resources and landmarks. Mr. Pressey gave us books to research with and we also used the internet.



We also finished off our bridges this week. We did our final tests with our bridges and one of the groups held up 37 blocks. The other thing we did to finish off our bridges was we did our final bridge reflections and Doceri video about everything that we learned.

Ms. Nguyen helped us create some bridge art. We made silhouettes of bridges in a sunset. We used water colour paints which we mixed to get our sunsets. We used sharpie pens to make the silhouettes of our bridges.

One of our favourite things we did this week was we started learning how to play the ukulele in Music. We learned how to play Lime in the Coconut.  To learn how to play we had to learn the chord C7. It was tricky to learn strumming patterns.

Sport Hub came by and began teaching us about volleyball. They taught us how to bump the ball and how to shuffle and how to volley.

Finally we would like to say farewell for now friend to Ms. Nguyen. We REALLY hope to see her again very soon. 😿

Good morning everyone, I just wanted to remind everyone that we are having our first Google Meet tomorrow at 11 am. If you have not been able to log onto Google Classroom please contact me and I will try to help out however I can. To get onto Google Classroom log onto your student email in the same way that you would get onto Google Docs at school. I should have sent you a class invite. Remember this week we are using Raz Kids for Reading and Prodigy for Math and it would be wonderful if you were practicing your multiplication facts. Grade 3's need to know up to 5 x 5 and the grade 4's need to know up to 7 x 7. We will be using these skills next week when we begin using Google Classroom. Have a great day.

March 15 Remember parents please book your parent teacher conference. You can do this by going to https://sis.cbe.ab.ca/public/home.html This week we continued to develop our engineering skills. We were designing our blue prints for our final bridge building activity. We were thinking about how shapes and materials will make our structures stronger. It was also important to think about how we could design using tension and compression. We have been exploring subtraction with regrouping again since it has been a long time and we were having some trouble remembering how to do it. We set a goal of getting 16 out of 32 subtraction regrouping questions correct and we achieved our goal :) Grade 3 Home Practice Grade 4 Home Practice
