We Got Mail!

We got a post card from a school. It was from the grade 3 class at Mount Pleasant Village Public School in Brampton. We do not know what some words mean. We have questions about what we read.

• The author did not put their name. Who wrote it?
• Can we go to their ice rink in Brampton?
• What is a GO station?
• What is a suburban community?

Questions we have about garbage and recycling

• Why do we need to recycle?
• Where does all of the Lunch Lady stuff go? Could we get a poster?
• Would it be a good idea if we had a compost bin in class? Could we put it in a cupboard?
• Can the school have their own compost bin?

I can use exciting action words in my writing.

Here is writing about this picture.

We have been learning about wheels and axles.
Wheels and axles are helpful because they don't make much friction.
Friction slows down our vehicles.

In this game below, see if you can avoid friction so you can speed quickly.
