Grade 1, 2, 3 Last week of Summer School

Last week of summer school we had the Grade 1, 2 and 3 classes combine. Students had lots of fun learning and playing with their new friends. 

In Language students were learning about procedure writing and writing/following instructions. 

We practiced this by writing some recipes and making origami following the written and picture instructions. On Friday we finished our procedure learning by making pancakes and following our recipes

In Math we were doing some split class learning, with the Grade 2's and 3's working on mass and Grade 1's looking at 2D and 3D shapes. Grade 2's and 3's practiced using scales to measure classroom objects and which units of measurement were the appropriate choice. Grade 1's built 3D shapes from paper nets and building blocks. 

In inquiry we looked at the idea of buoyancy and how different materials are affected in water. We made some origami boats and then tested them to see how much weight they would hold before sinking.
