Many students also learned how to use the scanner to scan pictures from factual books on the solar system. These scanned pictures were also used to illustrate their projects. We designed a healthy lifestyles poster using Print artist software. We have been learning how to make radiating patterns on the computer using triangles, squares, rhombuses, hexagons, and trapezoids. In our Grade 3 classroom we have been discovering that the world is full of patterns.
Group work is fun and rewarding.
In literature we used the story Millicent and The Wind by Robert Munsch. We discovered that letters follow a certain pattern too. We used the Corel Suite program to the author to tell him about our favorite part of the story. Our science program in February revolves around, what else, the weather. We learned about the various temperatures in Celsius and presented our drawings to the class.
