Unit 2 has been running 

full force in PYP 3!

This Unit is all about "How we organise ourselves" and the different systems that help us in organisation.

We have been looking at how CALENDARS, and  SCHEDULES help us in our organisation.
How TIME is organised into years, months, weeks, days, hours and minutes.

We looked into the major FOOD GROUPS and learned how they are organised into diary, grains, protein, fruits and vegetables. 

We are learning the importance of having a balanced diet and incorporating a variety of these different food groups into our meals. 

Here is a balanced meal checklist we have been using in the class and you are welcome to print and continue using it at home too!

We also investigated how our classrooms are organised, what systems do we use and the different ways things can be sorted and classified.

Children were also encouraged to investigate an area of their house and find out how it is organised.  

Children will need to:

• Choose an area at home to observe how things are organised - this can be your home office, kitchen pantry, their toy room, a cupboard, wardrobe or even a drawer in their room which shows children how things are organised at home.
• Record what they find in a way of their choosing: a drawing, a photograph, or words and sentences to go with this.
• Share their findings in class throughout the next week during our different circle time.
