Investigating Properties of Water
This week the children have been conducting investigations with water. Learning about the properties of water, how water behaves on different surfaces and on different slopes were part of our investigations. They are really enjoying these explorations and behaving like curious little scientists. Next in our studies is surface tension and the water cycle.

Dictionary Skills: Guide Words
We are practicing the proper use of guide words when using a dictionary. This is an important lesson for the children and one that can be practiced at home as well. The following links offer helpful games to practice this dictionary skill.

Telling Time
We are learning about telling time in 3B. Please take any opportunities you have at home (or in the car, etc.) to practice telling time with your child. We are practicing telling time using the following standards: quarter past, quarter to, half past, counting by five minutes and telling time to the minute.
There is a nice link on the blog below called "Stop the Clock" that practices analog time.
Thanks, as always, for your support!

Massachusetts Map Sample
This is a sample of a Massachusetts map from a former student. Not every map has to be done the same way, but this will give you an idea of a job well done!
