Math tip for the week: Be positive about math. Express confidence in your child’s ability to do math. Don’t stress either your own fear of math or how difficult math is or how much you admire anyone who can do math. Remember, everyone can and does use math all the time.

Learning comes in all different forms. Every three weeks Counselor Shelley Kelly meets with students K-5 to talk about social emotional learning. Students work on topics including compassion, building a better world, and integrity.
Students in Mrs. Rosario’s Eighth Grade Class learned more about the Periodic Table in a unique lab experience. She explains, “Students arranged Periodic People into a meaningful sequence based on patterns similar to the organization of the Periodic Table of Elements. Students used their arrangement to discover the gap in their sequence (the missing Periodic Person) somewhat similar to the process that chemist Dmitri Mendeleev used with the actual Periodic Table of Elements.”
The high school girls volleyball game for today (8/30) at the Venturacci Gym has been cancelled.

This week Mrs. Santos' third graders helped save Fred. Save Fred is a community building activity where students work together to get a gummy worm (Fred) into his life preserver (a gummy lifesaver) after his boat (a cup) capsizes. They can only use paperclips, no hands and they can't pierce his body. Students learn how to strategize, work with a partner/team, and use problem solving skills. #3rdgrade #oasisacademy
