The Super Class
Mastering multiplication and division facts is one of the most important skills gained in 3rd grade. We have been multiplying and dividing like champions lately! Here are a few photos from playing the Multiplication and Division “5-in-a-Row” Game.
We had a special art workshop with the artist Kosuke Fujita. He is the creator of the character もふいまる or Fluffy Ball. Mr. Fujita taught us about his life as an artist, how to find ideas and inspiration for our own art, and guided us in some drawing activities. This was a unique opportunity to connect with a professional artist.

Saint Maur Elementary School kicked off the holiday season with a festive performance in the Auditorium on November 29th. Third graders sang a beautiful song Mi Burrito Sabanero in Spanish. They even added a percussion section to heighten the appeal!
During the afternoon, 3G decorated the classroom for Christmas. I think our style theme is “Christmas Explosion! 💥”
At the end of the performance, the upper elementary choir sang a medley of songs all together.
Next week is Spirit Week at Saint Maur. Here is the list of dress up days leading up to our Christmas celebration on December 13th.

Our young archeologists combined forces with 3T to go on an imaginative adventure digging up artifacts and exploring an ancient tomb from one of the first great civilizations on Earth – Ancient Egypt! This was the entry point for our new unit in IPC. Over the next several weeks, we will do a deep dive into the history, culture, technology, people, and geography of Egypt. This is a fascinating unit of study.
3G celebrated Halloween with the Elementary School Student Council last week. There was a special Halloween Game Show and a charity fundraiser. Students and teachers wore Halloween accessories to add a little fun to the usual school uniform. There was also plenty of candy!
