Class Party Reminder!

Just a reminder not to forget our class party tomorrow. Please feel free to bring in a toy, as well as snack to share with the class. Children must attend school in their uniforms but may get changed into their own clothing after lunch.

Thank you,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Christmas Takes Over 3C!

3C are extremely excited about Christmas this year!

They have been participating in all sorts of Christmas activities throughout the week.  Let's take a look at how busy they've been...

During ICT, they learnt to edit photographs!

During Literacy, the pupils wrote some wonderful letters to Santa Claus. They also applied job positions as Santa's helpers.  James was very persuasive, however, he wrote his desired pay as 100,000 baht per month. I'm not sure that Santa would be able to afford him!

                                                                                                                                                                      

An Introduction to Fractions

In Mathematics, we have been learning all about fractions. We learnt that fractions are a way to represent parts of a whole number. Imagine you have a pizza for dinner. That pizza can be cut into any number of pieces so that everyone can have a slice. Each piece is a part, or fraction, of the whole pizza. We began learning about fractions by making pizzas for very fussy clients. 

Can you believe, that one client even ordered a pizza that was a sixth pepperoni, two sixths vegetarian and three sixths seafood! 

Luckily, we managed to deliver all of our orders on time and the clients were very happy with their pizzas. 

In another lesson, we made snowmen families which were also divided into different fractions. The children loved designing these and got quite competitive in regards to how many different ways they could split their snowmen.

                                      

Many of the children also managed to create a patterns according to a specific fraction of colours.

Weather around the World

In year 3, we have been learning all about weather around the world. We studied four main climate zones on Earth—tropical, temperate, desert and polar. We looked at these zones by  further dividing them into smaller zones, each with their own typical climate. We found out that a region’s climate, together with its physical characteristics, determines its plant and animal life.

We have had so much fun exploring how to use PowerPoint to create fact files on these climate zones; we created some beautiful artwork in relation to this and we conducted lots of interesting experiments.  
Take a look below to see some of our work...

Examples of our Art Work

We worked hard to decorate our classroom...

Whilst learning about the physical characteristics of different weathers, we learnt about the water cycle. In order to understand how rain and snow were produced, we conducted a number of experiments.

In one of our investigations, we looked at how long a cloud could hold rain for before it became to heavy.

It's been a lot of fun! Well done 3C, you have produced some excellent work this term.
