Welcome to 2018 in P3
Welcome to our class blog. This will give you information about what we are doing throughout the year, as well as show pictures and videos to demonstrate our learning. There will also be math, literacy and science games to compliment our learning.
We have completed the first two weeks of school and here are some of the things we have been doing in the classroom...
Math
We have been practicing place value strategies to help us add two digit numbers together quickly, like 48+11 = 40+10 and 8+1, and we have looked at making 10s or doubles to help us, ie; 8+6 = 7+7 or 10+4
We have been reviewing our bonds to 10, 20 and 100. Some students are still learning their bonds.
We tried prodigy game which is an online math game. It allows the teacher to review all the math concepts each child attempts, so I can work with children on any concepts they don't understand. It also allows your child to play and practice their math skills at home. Parents are able to track their child's progress by signing in.
We have also signed up with Studyladder. This site has math, literacy and science subjects. I will assign work for students to do. Once again, parents can follow their child's progress by signing in.
Science
We have been learning about our body systems. We started by looking at our brains, which is part of the Central Nervous System. Next we have looked at our body systems - the digestive, urinary, skeletal, nervous, circulatory systems etc.
English
We are listening to the first Land of Stories book, The Wishing Spell. We have been thinking about making pictures in our mind from the story to help our understanding.
We have reviewed some spelling patterns and looked at adjectives to improve our writing.
We have looked at types of sentences (command, question, statement and
