Here Comes 2013
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here. Our tree is up, and the Nativity is set to remind us of the real reason for the season – Jesus. Even with the festivities and excitement we have had A LOT of work to do. Learning about light and how our eyes work as well as learning about the fierce and terrifying Vikings has been interesting. We can hardly wait for 2013, and all of the new challenges, successes, and friendships it will bring. With God in control, it’s going to be a GREAT year.

Ancient Rome
We traveled back in time to Ancient Rome. We used our history books and Bible to find out about what Roman society was like. This month we are also thinking about how thankful we are for our families, our school, and each other, but most of all we are thankful for Jesus and God’s love that gets us through every day.

Yummy Experiment
In science we found out what matter is and just why it really matters. We discovered that there are solids, liquids, and gasses all around us. We even made our very own ice cream to show how a liquid can become a solid. It was one delicious experiment.

Oh Canada
October is a busy month here in third grade. We learned about Canada, our Neighbors to the North. Maybe some of us will visit there someday and see Niagra Falls, a Canadian goose, or even a Royal Mountie!
