Here we are the home stretch of Grade Three. I keep telling the kids that at this point, their job is to prepare for Grade Four. I am handing over a lot more responsibilities to them, such as filling in their planners properly and coming with completed homework. It might be beneficial to them to earn some more responsibility at home, such as chores or getting snacks for their lunches.
It is our Mass this Friday, please practice reading with your child if they have a reading part.
We have begun with multiplication and they should practice their facts for x0, x1, x2 and x5. Our new unit is Socials Studies is mapping and Canadian provinces. In Science, we are starting Plant life and Animal life cycles (concentrating on butterflies in a few weeks).
PLEASE SEND SOME SEEDS (fruits, vegetable, flowers, etc) for our plant unit by WEDNESDAY, APRIL 2nd. They can take them out of the fruits themselves to bring in (i.e. apple seeds, orange seeds, corn kernel-- not popcorn, etc)

Parenting Workshop:
Building Resilience our Children
With Dr. Deborah MacNamara
7pm on Tuesday, April 1st in the Parish Center
Humans are some of the most adaptive creatures on the planet with the capacity to overcome adversity and find creative solutions to our problems. While it is within everyone’s capacity to be resilient and resourceful, this potential is not always realized for everyone. Raising resourceful and resilient children has never been more important and the role of tears in this process never more misunderstood. Adults play a key role in cultivating the roots of resilience that have lasting effects on their capacity to endure adversity.
*Babysitting will be provided but space is limited.
Please RSVP to the School or PREP office using the form on the reverse side no later than Friday, March 28th.
