Dear Parents,


Happy October to everyone. 
We hope everyone had a restful holiday. 
Grade 3 students came back with lots of stories to share! 


Please note that Grade 3 is starting a new unit of 
inquiry this week, as follows: 



Human communication is open to interpretation. 

  Different methods/purposes for communication
  How/ why the media manipulates messages
  Critical evaluation of advertisements and media 



This unit builds on the signs and symbols unit the class explored last year in grade 2. 

During the month ahead we will be looking at various ways people get important messages across to select audiences.  We will also start to think critically about media and advertising around us. 

**If you have any expertise in this area or connections to anyone in the community that we could invite to school or go and visit, please let us know!
