Our Success Criteria!


Tick, tock, tick, tock.......

the time we have spent wondering, researching, and creating our artefacts about URBAN and RURAL       COMMUNITIES is almost up!




We will soon be presenting our Urban & Rural projects to the rest of the class..... 





But, how have we done? 
In class, we discussed what it would take to make our learning a success.....

This is what we came up with....


TO BE SUCCESSFUL, WE WILL....

-explain our ideas using relevant information and details from our research

-stay on topic

-compare our topic in urban & rural communities

-work together in our group

-create an artefact that shows our group work

-present our artefact in an interesting way


Next, we will complete our own self-evaluation based on this success criteria.

Visit our blog in the next few days to see what we have created!

Choices, choices, choices.....

Now that we have completed our research, it is time to SHARE what we have learned with the rest of the students in the class....  We have to create an artefact that will show what we KNOW!!

What should we do?  Look at the choices we have!!

Our CHOICE board



Here's what we can use to help us plan!!

Our "RESEARCH IN MOTION"


What does research look like in our grade three classes?


Over the past few days, we have been researching our wonder questions and gathering information to help us find the answers to them!


We have brought in our own devices (iPads, laptops, ipods & tablets) to help us.  We have also used school computers, laptops, netbooks and iPad minis. 


It is difficult finding the right information, but by working together and saving information on Edmodo, we are able to share and collaborate.
