The Oasis Academy National Junior Honor Society's annual Coat Drive ends this week! So...go through your closets and dig out the coats, jackets, sweatshirts, snow pants, warm hats, gloves, and scarves that your family has outgrown or no longer needs. Give them a spin through the wash and drop them off at the Oasis Academy front office by Thursday, November 18th. Donations will be distributed to those in need throughout our community. We will take any size or style, clean and gently used, or new if you prefer.
Please pass the word on to your friends and family and thank you to everyone that has already donated.
If you have any questions, please email Racquel Feest, NJHS Advisor, rfeest@oanv.org.
The Uniform Store is open TODAY, Monday, November 15th from 2:00 - 5:30pm for in store purchases only. This is a great time to grab those hoodies and sweatshirts for the colder weather ahead.

Weekly Reading Tip: When you come to a new word, take this opportunity to talk about it in interesting ways that your child will enjoy and learn from. For example, “This big house is called a palace. Who do you think lives in a palace?”. Source: http://www.k12reader.com/
Do you have any threes??? Who doesn't love a little #gofish in the morning before school!
Weekly Math Tip: Most kids love stopwatches, and watching the seconds tick by gives them opportunities to practice counting. Measure distances and heights. Count jumping jacks, push-ups, or consecutive kicks of a soccer ball. Ask your child: How far can you throw a ball? Take a guess, then throw the ball as far as you can and measure the distance. How many jumping jacks can you do in a minute? Try it! How many times can you jump rope or bounce a ball without missing? Count and see. Source: https://www.naeyc.org/
