Hello Grade 3 Families!
I hope that you have been enjoying the beautiful weather this week, and that you have a wonderful time celebrating Mother’s Day on Sunday!
The Grade 3 students really enjoyed preparing your Mother’s Day card & gifts. My wish, as a teacher and as a mom, is that you share a special moment together when you open them, and that everything goes according to plan for the blooming flowers ✨!
Now that the Grade 3 students have a good understanding of how multiplication sentences are groups multiplied by the same number of items within each group, we are ready to start division sentences this coming week!
Also, on Monday at 7:30 am, the Grade 3 students will have their first track meet practice at Minoru Centre. Please refer to Mr. Kelly’s PE Blog posting for more details. This is an exciting moment since it is their very first year participating in St. Paul’s Track and Field Meet!
Another important event happening in May is a field trip to see the “360 Allstars” at the Vancouver International Children’s Festival for all primary students on Tuesday, May 28th! Your child will be given a permission slip on Monday that needs to be filled out by you and handed back in by Tuesday, May 21st.
I will be needing 4 parent volunteers to help out while we are there. If you are interested, please checkmark the appropriate space in the form. Since I can only have four, if there are more parents that are interested, I will have to choose those who will be joining us, and I will let you know through an email whether or not you will be one of the parent volunteers. If you are chosen, additional information will be sent to your email prior to May 28th.
This week there will be no spelling words.
