THIRD GRADE ACTIVITIES

Third graders learn all about France and its products. We start the year with a visit to France Miniature and conclude the unit with a visit to a local cheese shop. In Social Studies, when we learn about the Ancient Egyptians, we visit the Louvre. Poetry writing and designing a long-ship are included in our study of the Vikings. There are many fun projects in science,such as building simple machines and making a wind-speed anemometer.

UNICEF is a big part of our religion program and each year we raise money to help children in developing countries. In March 2010 Grade 3 participated in the UNICEF Frimousse doll project. The dolls were all beautifully made and were displayed in the library. A raffle for the dolls raised an impressive €2 016 for UNICEF. See the photos
