TljIE THIRD GR DE We like to study science. Last fall we went to the park to look for cococns and we found a lot of them. we had a hard time balancing our aquar- ium. The first four times we put in the snails they died, but the fifth time one survived. A few days later we discovered some baby snails. Then we knew our aquarium was right for the fish. Some of the children brought in a father and a mother guppy fish. One Monday morning we found six baby guppies in the aquarium. The first week of school a basket of potatoes arrived. we grew them last year at one child's country home. We tested them and found that they have starch, minerals, and water. we boiled some of them in the cooking lab- oratory and they tasted delicious. We learned about many things. One study was about wheat and its growtm how it is planted, harvested, and made into flour. We also studied the weather and we made rain, fog, clouds, dew, frost, and snow. Our class kept a record of the weather for February. We study the weather Light as a feather And day after day We all work together. l .1

-ff -' ' W ir' -Www'-'H-Q GROUP A One thing that our class enjoyed this year was its project work. Different groups worked at a lot of different projects. This spring, to give its information to the whole class, each group put on what we called radio programs. We had a microphone and our voices carried from the cloak- room into our own room where those not broadcasting were sitting. We enjoyed putting on a play, HMr. Toadn. It was the story of Uwind in the Willowsu but we shortened and changed it. In the fall we got o puppet stage which we used. We gave puppet shows at the Christmas assembly. we had three good student teachers: Mrs. Gilbert, Mr. Brewer, and Miss Wolin. Mr. Brewer gave us a mouse and a record and lent us the microphone. We feel we have found out about a lot of things this year, but we still have a lot to learn.
