Week 10 -- 11/6/17

Fall finally feels like it is here. The weather is definitely cooling down especially in the mornings.  Please make sure your child wears layers so they are comfortable with these crazy temperatures.

We had a excitingly busy week last week. We had a visit from the Sheriff's office (Thank you Officer Maynez) telling us all about their job and how they are community helpers. We got to look at their cool tools and their police car.  We also had our Halloween party which was a lot of fun!! Thank you to Mrs. Piexoto, Mrs. Pheasey, Mrs. Pascoe, Mrs. Wadsworth for planning the fun activities for us to do. Also a big thank you to Mrs. Craig for making our spooky treats.  Along with all this excitement we managed to work hard on our community helper projects. We also go in some fun Halloween writing too.

1st Quarter ended on Thursday.  However, Oasis Academy has moved to trimesters except for Specials.  This means that your child will receive a report card 3 times this year instead of 4 and they rotate into another special on Monday: For our class it is Music with Mrs. Barton.  

Below you will find a slide show of our fun filled week.

The Book Fair was a great success!  Thank you to ALL of the parent volunteers who made it happen.  We appreciate all of the time and effort that you put into the Oasis Academy Book Fair.



This week your 1st grader will continue relate addition to subtraction within 10.  We will continue to work with numbers by: counting on, making “ten,” composing and decomposing, and creating fact families.  Mrs. Bloomfield and I would also like to gets our kids started on their addition facts in order to build their “fluency” of working with numbers within ten.  Starting with addition and later in the year, working with subtraction.
