Quarter 3 Week 6

Happy Monday Bighorns,

February is already flying by!  Please remember the following information about Valentine's Day...

Valentine’s Day
Since Valentine’s Day falls on a Sunday this year, Oasis Academy will not be holding parties for Valentine’s Day or having students pass out Valentines.  With Valentine’s Day included in the long President’s Day Weekend, Oasis families are encouraged to celebrate Valentine’s Day with their families.

Writing - The 2nd graders are paired up to participate in a shared writing project on animals.  Together, they chose one animal to study and research.  They were to use multiple resources to read, recall and gather information from the resources chosen to write about and answer questions about their animal!
Projects - The students are working on Geography - “On the Map.”  With guidance, the students have used Google Maps to search local and nearby places starting with Oasis Academy...we discovered that our building looked much different in 2009 than it does now!  We have also narrowed the search to North America, Nevada, Churchill County and Fallon as well as discussing physical features on a map.  Most recently we read about a compass and legend on a map.
