On Thursday, February 25, 2016

All 1st grade students at Oasis Academy will be presenting their animal slideshows that they have created.  They have been researching their assigned animal and are now ready to share what they have learned.

Please come anytime between 1:00 and 1:40

Students will be performing in the "dungeon" which is the building where the book fair was held right next to the OLD school entrance. 
Please plan on parking in the big parking lot in front of Louie's Dollar Plus.

You are welcome to take your child home at 1:40 after they are done presenting.

We hope to see you on Thursday, the kids are so excited!

A email also went home from Mrs. Loop with this information.  

Last week in first grade...
  • we practiced our slideshows and added animation to them.
  • we created a diorama showing the animals habitat and what they eat.
  • we practiced making complex/compound interrogative and declarative sentences.
  • we also learned some interesting facts about our former presidents.
This week we will...
  • share our slideshows with the 2nd graders
  • begin our poetry unit
  • continue to write compound/complex sentences
*** Our Spelling pattern this week will be ay (the cool dudes).

On Thursday we were invited to watch the middle school kids present their simple machine projects. The first and 2nd graders had a lot of fun watching these great projects.  Here are some pictures from this fun event. 

Have a Great Week!!!
