Tonight, the fourth graders are going to share what they have learned on their recorders, and the third graders are going to tell you some of what we have learned in class AND in music, PE, art and computer about continents around the world.


Seven Continents

• The Earth is mostly water. In fact, ¾ of the Earth is covered in water. The big bodies of water are called oceans.

• The big pieces of land on Earth are called continents. There are seven continents:North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia AND Antarctica


North America

• We live on the continent of North America. People came here from many other continents.

• The USA, Mexico, and Canada are the three biggest countries in North America.

Sing, Sing, Sing and Cheki morena represent two of the languages spoken here.
