Week of April 9th


Happy Monday!
I hope you all had a relaxing Spring Break. We are all a little slow moving this morning. I wanted to send a reminder that field trip forms are due THIS Friday, April 13th. I have asked if anyone needs another copy of the permission slip and a few hands were raised so I will be sending home another copy today. If you do not receive one today and still need one, please let me know and I will send that home with your child. Just a reminder, it is CASH ONLY! No checks please!!!

Another reminder that yearbooks are $25 CASH ONLY!!! Due THIS Friday, April 13th.

Also, Milestone testing starts TOMORROW! I have had a few people return the baseball in the envelope that was sent home with report cards, but there is still time. This is just an opportunity for you to write a little note for your child to remind them how wonderful they are and ease their minds before testing begins. Just a few things to remember for testing:
1.     Please be on time! If you child checks in late, they will have to wait in the cafeteria and will have to make up that portion of the test.
2.   Go to bed early! Especially after being able to stay up late and sleep in, it is very important for your child to get a good night sleep before testing. J
3.    Breakfast! Make sure to have breakfast. There isn’t anything more distracting than having your stomach growling while you are trying to focus.  J If your child eats breakfast at school, make sure they are arriving in time to do that.
4.   Comfy Clothes! I told the students today to dress comfy this week. That doesn’t mean to come to school in PJ’s, but if they want to wear sweatpants, that is perfectly fine!

Due to the Milestones testing, we will not be giving out math or reading homework. I am encouraging students to continue reading every night but making sure that they get plenty of rest. 

 If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask! J

Ms. Pugh

Week of January 14th

Happy Monday Pugh Tribe! Its been a few weeks since my last blog post. I hope you all had a very restful weekend. We are beginning a lot of exciting new units in 3rd grade this week. Here is a look into what we will be learning over the next few weeks. Math: We began fractions last week by taking a look at key vocabulary such as numerator and denominator. From there, we moved into what a unit fraction is and how to partition shapes to represent unit fractions. This week, we will be building off of unit fractions and looking at partitioning number lines to represent fractions. I used this learn zillion video this morning and wanted to share it with you for additional practice at home. https://learnzillion.com/lesson_plans/6303-identify-a-fraction-as-a-point-on-a-number-line-by-dividing-the-number-line-into-equal-parts/ Reading: Last week, we began looking at how characters develop in the stories that we read and will continue that focus into this week. We started reading Becaus...
