The Solar System
In today's Science lesson we tackled the solar system. We listened to some songs to become familiar with the planets' names'. Then we saw a video, followed a number of games where more information was given. We now know the names of the 9 planets in our solar system, the order as regards the distace from the sun, that the sun is a star and that our planet Earth takes a year to orbit the sun. We know that our galaxy is called the Milky Way. Here are the links to some more fun facts about space.

Plurals
This week's English lesson was about the plurals.
Remember that to some words we add:
s = boy - boys
es = fox - foxes, dish - dishes, church - churches, glass - glasses
ies = lady - ladies
ves = shelf - shelves
Others called irregulars do not follow one of the patterns above. They might change completely or remain just the same.
goose = geese, mouse = mice
Mixed plural exercises
Plural Nouns - Bug Catcher

Healthy Lifestyles
This week we had several initiatives at school encouraging healthy lifestyles. Us at Year 3 visited the President's Kithchen Garden. There we learned about the goodness of eating fresh, local produce. We learned about the importance of having more trees and plants in our environment to have more clean and fresh air. Then we had a stroll at San Anton Gardens and children were made aware that spending free time surrounded by greenery and peacefulness is healthier than staying closed at home in front of the TV or playing with the playstation.
At school children were also given the opportunity to play traditional games. These games help children stay active and enjoy the outdoors. I must say that they were enthusiastic and enjoyed all of the games most especially the 'bocci' and 'zibeg'. Here are some photos :-)
