Hello Room 3 Families:

It’s hard to believe we’re nearing the end of the school year! These past two weeks in Room 3 have been full of fun, learning, and special moments.

In Literacy, we’ve continued with our daily reading and spelling work, and the students have been busy finishing up the writing for their memory books. It’s been so sweet to see them reflect on their favourite moments from the year and proudly share their thoughts.

In Math, we’ve been exploring the concepts of “tall” and “short”, comparing different objects around the classroom. We also practiced our addition skills and played a few fun rounds of number bingo!

One of our biggest highlights was our walking field trip to the spray park. We had an absolute blast playing in the sun, splashing with friends, and enjoying some ice cream afterward. It was such a joyful way to celebrate the end of the year!

Another magical moment in Room 3—our butterflies hatched! The students were so excited to watch the transformation, and we’ve been carefully observing them all week. We’ll be releasing them on Monday, which will be a very special moment for us all.

To top it all off, we made cinnamon buns in class—and they were a huge hit! The room smelled amazing, and the students loved every part of the process (especially the eating part!).

Stay dry this weekend!

With gratitude,
Karly

This Week in Room 3:

What a fantastic week we’ve had in Room 3! Here’s a look at all the exciting learning and experiences your children have been enjoying:

Literacy
This week, we continued to develop our independent reading and spelling skills. The students are growing more confident choosing books and practicing their spelling words daily. We also practiced oral sharing during our Weekend Sharing Circle, where children took turns talking about their weekends—helping build their speaking and listening abilities. In writing, we focused on adding interesting details to our memory books to make our stories more vivid and engaging.

Math
We wrapped up our unit on Time and began exploring Measurement. We started by learning the terms “big” and “small” and contrasted different objects to understand these concepts better. The children also compared lengths of objects and practiced using the word “longer” when comparing two items. It was a great start to our new unit!

Social Learning
Our focus this week was on working together toward a common goal by doing our individual parts and following expected behaviours. We put this learning into action during our exciting trip to the Zoo

The Zoo
The Zoo was this weeks big event!! It was such a joy exploring all the amazing animals—from the dinosaurs to the roaring and playful tigers, the baby and daddy gorillas, the Komodo dragon, and the sea otters. The kids also loved playing at Bugtopia playground. The trip was a wonderful opportunity to get out of the classroom and discover new things in a new place.

Science
In science, we observed our caterpillars closely, drawing detailed pictures and even cleaning out their habitat. We have watched them grow bigger every day and are patiently waiting for them to begin forming their chrysalises. It’s a fascinating process that everyone is excited to witness!

Thank you for your ongoing support and encouragement at home. We are so proud of the growth and curiosity your children show every day!

Warm regards,
Miss Karly :)
