📓 Learning Updates
🌎 Social Studies - Cultural Food Festival
Thank you for making our first ever Grade 3 Cultural Food Festival an incredible success! It was so exciting to share and taste the many special dishes from our families and cultures! The students were so proud to share the unique recipes that represented their culture and family! Ask your child what types of food they tried today!
🏋 Math - Measurement: Mass
We have been learning all about measuring mass. Mass is how much matter is in an object and is a way of measuring the weight of both light and heavy objects. We have learned that 1 gram weighs about as much as a paperclip. We have also learned that one kilogram weighs about as much as a large hardcover book. We know that there are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram. We have been practicing converting grams to kilograms and kilograms to grams. Ask your child to estimate the weight of various objects around your house in grams or kilograms. Help your child notice and look for these measurements in real life. We read our food package labels during snack time and were able to notice many different measurements in grams.
