The difference between Cats and Dogs

One the kids decided during our work on Bar graphs that they should inform me on the difference between dogs and cats, dogs apparently think they rule the world and cats are the land...I think there was something lost in the translation but all the same very informative.

We had a great day in grade 3 with Science and work on rocks and minerals, math and our ever growing graphing unit and Daily 5. During our Daily 5 time i was very pleasantly surprised to see the growth in one student in particular when it came to his reading.  After commenting on it I could see the pride on his face with the great accomplishment he had made. Another student had so much expression in her reading she started to to get animated physically like she was performing a play. It was so fun to see her enjoying reading so much.

Our Math today was centered around graphing with the Bar graph being the star. The kids picked it up quickly for the most part and have loved creating huge graphs to show the class. One moment in particular that was beyond funny was the child that had favorite music with choices like Crazy Frog, Gangnam Style, and Nickleback and his outrage that no one voted for Nickleback.

It was a busy day but a fun day and tomorrow is FRIDAY!

Please Take a look at our pictures below :)
