Primary 3 Update

During the month of February, Primary 3 studied Inner Earth and Volcanoes. Our students had a real “blast” erupting our classroom volcano model and their own personal volcanoes! In addition to volcanoes, we explored China and celebrated Chinese New Year. Our parents were invited to our parade and to enjoy a sample of Chinese cuisine. During the week of February 19-22, we learned about The US presidents and US symbols. As we ended February, we began our in depth study of Ancient Egypt. Here is our month of March at a glance:
