2002-2023 Wrap Up!

Even though the school year is winding down we haven't stopped learning and having fun in The Third Grade Learning Spot! In reading, we've been studying folktales, fables, and fairytales. 

Stories we read included Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears, Lon Po Po, and The Paper Bag Princess. After reading The Tortoise and the Hare and The Lion and the Mouse, the class created a Venn Diagram to compare and contrast the main characters and story lessons...

Children created their own spider sons of Anansi, including symbols to represent their names and character traits, after reading Anansi the Spider: A Tale from the Ashanti...

In math, we wrapped our our area and perimeter unit by pretending to be working on a secret NASA mission. Using specific measurements, partners created area and perimeter robots to explore Mars. They also named the robots and gave them special features to represent their names and help them survive on Mars...

Wishing everyone an enjoyable last few days of school and wonderful summer break!
