Here are some quick updates from our busy and fun 3 day week at school. I am excited to be heading to Teachers' Convention on Thursday and Friday to engage in some learning opportunities with my colleagues! I hope the kiddos enjoy their long weekend and I look forward to seeing their smiling faces on Monday! 😊
Science 🦒🦄🦌🐱🐶🦎🦔🦏🐼🐑🐘🐷🐪
The Grade 3 hallway was transformed into a zoo this week! The kiddos did an amazing job presenting their balancing animal science projects. I absolutely loved hearing all about the creativity and engineering that went into their impressive creations. Thank you for your support at home with this project. The students were bursting with pride while they shared their balancing animal projects with the class and also at our Grade 3 Science Fair this afternoon! We will have our lovely little zoo on display above our cubbies in our hallway until Spring Break. I have uploaded photos of the students and their projects to our class website. A screen shot of the photo gallery is below, however you can browse full size photos on the website.

🌏 Social
We started learning all about Ukraine in Social Studies this week! Over the next couple of weeks, we will be learning about the land, climate, fashion, food, celebrations, music, dance, and art! We started with a virtual field trip on Google maps and discussed some of the key symbols of Ukraine, including their flag and coat of arms. If you or someone you know has any exciting aspects of Ukrainian culture to share, please let me know. 😊
