Reading log online

Here is the link to our new online reading log.

Room 3 Reading Log


This is how it works...

Each night you should be reading either your library book or a school journal. Once you have done some reading you can fill out the reading log and submit it.

No worries if you don't have access to the internet at home, you can do it when you come to school in the morning or during reading follow up time.

Experiment Mondays - SUGAR in our drinks


The actual limit of sugar for children is 3 to 4 teaspoons during the preschool and early years, and between 5 and 8 teaspoons during the tween and teen years.






We tested how much sugar is in popular drinks and this is what we found out


V

Mizone

E2

Powerade

Pulpy Orange Juice










4 teaspoons in Mizone water


20 teaspoons in the orange juice



7 teaspoons in the V


15 teaspoons in the E2


12 teaspoons in Powerade




It was shocking to find out that 3 out of 5 of these drinks contain more than the total daily amount of sugar we should be consuming.
