| Ben tests his prediction More young scientists below... |
We had a great day today in
third grade.
We started with finding the shapes, edges, and vertices of 3-D shapes for bell work.
In math we continued going over the packet we had last Friday. We showed multiple ways to solve a multi-digit multiplication problem. Ask your child to show you at least 2 ways tonight.
In reading we read chorally, illustrated our vocabulary words, and went to computer lab. We had several that leveled up in Lexia this past week. Congratulations to these children.
In spelling we made a shape, then turned it over and repeatedly wrote our spelling words.
In science we dropped food coloring. We dropped it from three different heights: 5 cm, 15 cm, and 30 cm. Then we predicted what our drop would look like when we dropped it from the height of our individual chins. We also discussed whether or not everyone’s would look the same. I thought I would trip them up on this, but they thought about it and realized that they wouldn’t all look the same, due to the fact that our chins are at different heights. Then we went out in to the hall and tested our predictions.
