Ramsay School Grade 3 Jackson

 Hello families,  This week we had the opportunity to work with our kindergarten buddies! We worked together to create symmetrical pictures of a butterfly. Grade 3's did a great job being leaders and encouraging their buddies when they made mistakes or encountered challenges. 

 Hello families,  In Math we have been looking at pictographs and bar graphs. Some key vocabulary we learned this week included labels, scales, most/least common, most/least popular and data. Once we became familiar with the necessary terms and what a bar graph needs to include, we collected data on the average bed times of students in our class. Once data was collected students worked in pairs to show our findings in a bar graph.  Have a great weekend,  Drew

 Hello families,  This week we examined the artwork of Georgia O'Keefe to create acrylic paintings on canvas. We looked at O'Keefe's close up paintings of flowers to help us with our creations.  Please note that next week is Ramsay School's celebration of learning from 6:00-7:30 PM. Families are welcome to visit at anytime and encouraged to visit the classrooms.  

 Hello families,  This week we persevered through some less than ideal weather to have a great morning at Weaselhead Flats Park. While there we had the opportunity to view the habitats, adaptations and life cycles of invertebrates, squirrels, garter snakes, mud swallows, beavers and other living plants and animals.
