Dear Grade 3, Happy 17th of May!  Enjoy a wonderful long weekend. Homework this week: 1- Norwegian reading and skills practice 2- Water chart- Students are invited to keep a 5 day tally of their water consumption at home 3- Math- Area and perimeter practice sheets

Homework May 9-16 This week students have Norwegian reading and  math to do. The math sheets ask them to  practice graphing coordinates accurately on a grid.  They should remember: All coordinates consist of two numbers separated  with a comma and usually  within parentheses. Example: ( 3, 1) The first number is the horizontal coordinate,  or the number along the x axis. The second number is the vertical coordinate,  or the number up the y axis. So the coordinate (3,1) means 3 along and 1 up. Often children get their coordinates the wrong way  round and go up first and then along, ending up  with the coordinate (1,3). An easy way to remember the correct way is... 'x is a cross so the x coordinate always goes across.' We can also say that... 'x always comes before y, so the x coordinate  is always first.'

Thank you all for coming to our  Student Led Conferences. Your children were very excited to have you there! Their portfolios will have many  more items added between now and the end of June. They will bring them home  at the end of the year. We will print a personal conference photo  and include it in their portfolio too.

Dear All, The class has the following for HW this week: 1- Mathletics - Fractions and reading graphs practice    https://www.khanacademy.org/math/arithmetic/fraction-arithmetic/arith-review-fractions-intro/v/fraction-basics ( See this short video clip to review some of the fraction  ideas we have talked about in class ) 2- Reading Eggspress     I assigned everyone a library book to read. Enjoy and do      not forget to do the chapter quizzes. 3- Writing skills practice in Reading Eggspress    Students are writing a lot of their own stories.
