Hello families and friends of Year 3, 

 As we come to the end of the semester, the students have been busy completing different assessments and consolidating their learning. Across the board, they have done a super job and should be proud of their efforts! 

English – we have been writing procedural recounts based on different science experiments we have done, for example our cloud dough and rain clouds in a jar. The students needed to use adverbs and adjectives to describe the different procedures. 

Maths – this week we have been collecting and representing data. The students were required to come up with some inquiry questions and collect data from the class. We then represented this data in bar graphs and pictographs using rulers. It was super important to be extra neat! 

HASS – Across both strands in HASS the students have been using seesaw to represent their learning. They were required to make a flow chart on how a law is made and why they are so important to society. In geography, the students were reading different grid maps and references and recognising the different symbols for mapping. 

Religion – For the final religion unit the students have been looking at sacraments of initiation. This involves baptism, confirmation, eucharist. The students recognised the different symbols associated with each sacrament and the process that occurs within the church.  

Thank you all for a wonderful week,  

Emily
