A very exciting day today!  We went to JMH to see Shrek!  It was amazing!  It's hard to believe that high school students can put on that calibre of a play.  We walked up to JMH, watched the play, and walked back.  When we got back we ate lunch.  After we ate we did our laps in PE with Miss McFarlene.  After PE we had Art with Miss Gallant.  What did you paint today?  We finished up our day with our closing activites and books of gratitude.  No chair changes today!  Get lots of rest and I will see you tomorrow for the last day of the week!  Wow time is flying by!

Welcome back from the long weekend!  We started off today with a quick chair shuffle from Friday, but this one seemed to make everyone happy!  Good job Tricia.   We did a spelling word, frugal, do you know what that means?  We also tried to solve a problem "If I lost a cell phone", and we did an old doodle of a building in Paris.  Then we had math.  We had our first lesson in our new unit on Fractions.  The most important thing about all of the parts in fractions is that the parts need to be EQUAL!  We worked on dividing things up into equal parts.  Then we went outside for recess.  It was a bit damp but it wasn't raining.  When we came in we had language arts with Miss Gallant.  We are writing letters to Mr. Zuckerman to persuade him to do something.   I hope your letter is helps Wilbur!  We got outside again for lunch.  After lunch we went to JMH to play floor hockey.   Did your team win?  When we got back Mr. Murphy was waiting for us.  Do you remember what he talked about and showed you?  After that we had science.  We looked at what healthy plants need to survive.   We also looked at some of our tomato plants that are starting to grow.  Is this a picture of the tomato plants we planted?  How do you know?  Get lots of rest and I will see you tomorrow.

A busy day today in grade 3!  We started off the day with solving a quick problem.  What would you do if you woke up because you heard glass breaking?  We finished our morning activities and went to Language Arts with Mr. Cormier.  We worked on our Charlottes Web novel study.  Miss Gallant was reading with students today.  How did you do reading?  Was it hard?  We went outside for recess.  When we came back in we had Math.  We talked about the three things that we need for points on our quiz tomorrow on multiplying and dividing.  We got to go outside just a bit early.  We had burgers for hot lunch.  We went outside again on this awesome day for an extended gym class with Miss McFarlene.  We did our go for 42 laps and played soccer on the playground.  We came back in and worked on our book of gratitude for computer class.  Why is it now for computer class?  We also did another Chair shuffle.  Some people took some risks that didnt pay off!  There is always tomorrow!  Good luck!
