Earth’s Landforms
For our unit of inquiry we have been identifying the many different landforms of the Earth and working on our dictionary skills. After some research the students were able to name forty different landforms. They then choose their favorites and wrote definitions with pictures to illustrate the landforms. These were collected and made into a picture dictionary which will be added to our class library for the students to read and enjoy at their leisure. Here are a few samples of some of the dictionary pages.


Buddy Reading
On Friday, December 9th the grade 3 students shared the library time with the grade one class. During this time the third grade students read very nicely and cooperatively with the first graders.

Let’s Celebrate!
On Friday the parents organized a class party for the third graders. They celebrated with many homemade treats and drinks. The students then took the initiative and worked very cooperatively and organized games and activities to occupy themselves. It was a wonderful celebration before the holidays start! A big thank you to all the parents for creating this event for us! We enjoyed it very much!

The students are to be congratulated for a wonderful job on their song ‘Frosty the Snowman’ which they performed for the Winter Event! A great job everyone! You should be proud of yourselves!!!
