3/4 Class News Week 6 & 7

Grade 3-4 have continued to delve into the wonderful world of poetry this term, focussing our attention on rhyming poetry.

Here are some examples of the poetry our students have written:

Matt wanted to sit on a mat

But there was a cat

But Matt still sat

Until a rat took the mat

So he ate, and got fat

So the cat had a nap

By Anthony

Dogs

Dogs are lovely creatures

Some like to play fetch

But some like to take long walks on leashes

Then they have a big stretch

By Olavi

Food

I really love food, I want it everywhere

I really wish it was whimsically floating in the air

Some foods are delicious

But some are scrumptious

Some are healthy

But some are only for the wealthy

By Nora

Cross Country

Every step is moving

Everybody is grooving

Step plus step equals the end

After that, I help my friends

Because of that, I came first

It made me burst

By Jack

We have also been learning about multiplication, division and measurement in maths. The class made quite a splash investigating capacity, using formal units of measurement when estimating, measuring and comparing different containers.
