Students will continue Knowledge 10: The Human Body: Building Blocks and Nutrition. This domain first covers concepts regarding cells and how cells form the building blocks of life on Earth. Students are then taught how collections of cells form tissues, and tissues form organs, and finally how organs work within the various body systems. In addition, students are taught about Anton van Leeuwenhoek and his work with the microscope and his discovery of the tiny one-celled bacteria. Students will then hear about the digestive and excretory systems. They will learn the fundamental parts and functions of these two body systems. The remainder of this domain focuses on the importance of good nutrition and how to make good choices in order to eat a well-balanced diet. Students will be taught five keys to good health—eat well, exercise, sleep, keep clean, and have regular checkups.

Students will continue Module 6: Foundations of Multiplication and Division. This module lays the conceptual foundation for multiplication and division in Grade 3 and for the idea that numbers other than 1, 10, and 100 can serve as units. Students begin by making equal groups using concrete materials, learning to manipulate a given number of objects to create equal groups (e.g., given 15 objects, they create 3 groups of 5 or 5 groups of 3), and progress to pictorial representations where they may begin by circling a group of 5 stars, adding 5 more, and then adding 5 more. Students then organize the equal groups created in Topic A into arrays, wherein either a row or column is seen as the new unit being counted. Lastly they will focus on doubles and even numbers.

Students begin the marking period by exploring how technology affects the way people live, work, and play. Students compare methods of transportation and communication. They determine how these technologies have changed over time and the impact of these changes on daily life. Students examine the production process to identify how natural, capital, and human resources are used to produce goods and provide services. Next, students examine different markets and explore methods of payment consumers use to obtain goods and services. Students end the marking period by examining why people, consumers and producers, must make economic choices. 

Students will focus on Social Studies for the beginning of Quarter 3.
