Division 9 dollars have been in circulation since Monday. Students are paid $2 for their class jobs, and last Friday I opened the store for them to purchase small candies, erasers or stickers with their class money. On Tuesday, they were also given a $100 bonus, and were able to buy building supplies for a plot of land in G\u00e9om\u00e9trieville. With their $100, students purchased nets for cubes, rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and pyramids for the construction of houses and other buildings, and cones for &#8220;planting&#8221; trees. With this project, we practiced vocabulary for geometry, understanding of 3D objects, and fluency with coins and bills. Plus, we stretched our creative muscles!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1472 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/2F91EA40-3F29-43DE-B02D-AE4A48D98A18.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"277\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/2F91EA40-3F29-43DE-B02D-AE4A48D98A18.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/2F91EA40-3F29-43DE-B02D-AE4A48D98A18-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/2F91EA40-3F29-43DE-B02D-AE4A48D98A18-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 277px) 100vw, 277px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1473 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/D2C2E52F-AA61-4C69-BC37-7F67F1417802.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"197\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/D2C2E52F-AA61-4C69-BC37-7F67F1417802.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/D2C2E52F-AA61-4C69-BC37-7F67F1417802-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/D2C2E52F-AA61-4C69-BC37-7F67F1417802-675x900.jpeg 675w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px\" \/>This week, we had high school students visit to teach us\u00a0how to make our own chalk using crushed eggshells. A few students opted instead to make mosaics using dyed shells. Shellevate was an exciting, if messy, success!<\/p>\n<p>In Science, we have been finishing up our research project on animals, adding the final touches to our books. Our Grade 3s have worked very hard on this project and have practiced a lot of vocabulary related to biodiversity!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1481 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/AA4A997F-2C73-4A29-A30E-B4F5AC8443EE.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"274\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/AA4A997F-2C73-4A29-A30E-B4F5AC8443EE.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/AA4A997F-2C73-4A29-A30E-B4F5AC8443EE-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/AA4A997F-2C73-4A29-A30E-B4F5AC8443EE-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px\" \/>For French and Art, we read one of my favourite books titled <em>Parfois je suis un renard<\/em> by Danielle Daniel. Afterwards, we brainstormed adjectives to describe a large number of West Coast animals. Then we thought of a list of verbs to choose from to explain the animals&#8217; actions. Using both, we wrote our own poems inspired by the structure of <em>Parfois je suis un renard<\/em>. Later in the week, we created fabulous self portraits following the style of illustration from the book.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1474 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/B0B69C32-CD14-4657-8924-1DDB6F190A7B.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"370\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/B0B69C32-CD14-4657-8924-1DDB6F190A7B.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/B0B69C32-CD14-4657-8924-1DDB6F190A7B-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/andersonm\/files\/2022\/06\/B0B69C32-CD14-4657-8924-1DDB6F190A7B-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 370px) 100vw, 370px\" \/>We were invited to watch the Grade 1s from Mme Lam&#8217;s class perform songs that they have been practicing this term.
