Week of March 4th

Happy Monday!

We have a great week ahead of us! Here is a look into what we will be doing this week.

Math: Today, the students took a pre-assessment for perimeter and word problems. We will begin perimeter tomorrow and continue through Friday. The following week, we will be doing word problems to finish out the quarter.

Reading: This week, we are looking at standard RI.2 which is identifying the main idea in an informational text. We had a great first lesson and will be building on that information throughout the rest of the week. In grammar, we are looking at using commas in addresses and using context clues to find the meaning of unknown words or words with multiple meanings.

Picture Day: Tomorrow at 9:10 am we will be taking our class picture. Make sure to send in the form or I believe there is a way to pay online!

Social Studies Test: Tomorrow, we will be taking an assessment on the Age of Discovery including all of the European Explorers that we have learned about. We complete a study guide on Thursday to utilize in preparation as well as reviewed in class. Today, the students worked around the room completing task cards using some of the same vocabulary they will see tomorrow on their assessment. I have encouraged all of them to look over the study guide tonight.

Spelling Words: The spelling words for the week are:

  1. running
  2. popping
  3. dragging
  4. wagging
  5. diving
  6. wasting
  7. whining
  8. kicking
  9. driving 
  10. munching
  11. wanting
  12. finding
  13. pushing
  14. sleeping
  15. waiting
Our School Social Worker Mrs. Fowler has asked us to share this flier with all of our parents for free vision screenings. 

Reminders: Early Release is next Wednesday. Just wanted to remind you to mark it on your calendar Report Cards will be going home on Friday, March 22nd. 

I know it is a lot of information. I want make sure that you are up to date on everything that is going on in the Pugh Tribe. 

Have a Marvelous Monday,

Ms. Pugh

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.
