Grade 3B Info., Updates, News

Wait until you see what we've been up to...

Today we continued to work on two-digit by two-digit multiplication. Students have been asked to concentrate on one of the following strategies: drawing, break apart, and a stacking strategy. You can see all three strategies below: 

Picture

Today students were given time to practice these strategies. Students are currently working towards mastering the strategy of their choice, however, students who are comfortable with the above should be encouraged to use multiple strategies. Students can also use other strategies that they might know from previous years or have learned about home. As long as students can demonstrate to me a knowledge of their strategy. Tomorrow we will begin looking at division. Keep practicing those multiplication facts! We still need them. 

In Language Arts today, we finished looking at a form of poetry that we started looking at yesterday - limericks. A limerick is five line, often humorous poem, that follows an AABBA rhyme scheme. However, limerick also tend to use the same AABBA pattern in terms of metre. What we mean is, the amount of syllables is similar in lines 1, 2, and 5, also in lines 2 and 4. Take the example below:

Students have been working on constructing their own syllables in their Writer's Notebooks. We will be looking at Haiku in upcoming lessons before moving on to a unit on narrative writing.
