Back to School 2015

On the second day of school we were able to practice and learn about our school and our school rules by visiting different stations. One of our stations was a brain break room which included props for photos! Enjoy some of our pictures from that day!

Fall Party 2014

This year for our fall party, we mixed up all the kids in all three third grades. We then had them rotate through each classroom where they were able to make a craft, play some games, and create a treat. Check out all the cool frankenstein brownies the kids made!

Playing with pumpkins

Last week the kids were able to get into some groups to do some work with pumpkins. They started by measuring the circumference and height of their pumpkin. They then had a chance to weigh them. Next they made predictions on whether or not their pumpkin would float when placed in a bucket of water. Many of them were surprised when they floated! Enjoy the pics!

If I were a Superhero

Earlier this month, our class was discussing character traits.  We read a book about a superhero dog named Dex.  The students were then asked to write what qualities they would like to have if they were a superhero.  They then designed their own.  They turned out awesome!

Animal Adaptations

This week in science we have been discussing animal adaptations. We have been talking about ways animals survive in their environment by adapting to their surroundings. One way animals do this is through camouflage. The students colored a butterfly to match the surroundings of the classroom and then we looked around the room to see how well we camouflaged our butterflies. It was a lot of fun. Check out the pictures!

Sowing Seeds

As we wrap up our study on plants, I thought I would share with you some pictures of an experiment we did to see which types of seeds would germinate fastest.  We "planted" radish seeds, pinto beans, sunflower seeds, and rye grass.  We found out that radish seeds germinated the fastest and that plants will begin to grow without soil but won't last for long.  We had a lot of fun.  Enjoy the pictures!
