4k students completed a Directed Drawing lesson with Mrs. Bauer.
They were given step-by-step directions, and had to copy what she did.
They didn't know what the outcome would be until they were done!
After all the lines and circles were complete, each student realized they had drawn a cute little turkey.
Some of the benefits of directed drawing with young students include:
*strengthens fine motor control and hand-eye coordination
*helping to build confidence in their drawing abilities
*improves listening skills and the ability to follow directions
*boosts vocabulary and language skills through step-by-step instruction
*encourages attention to detail and spatial awareness
*reinforces shape and line recognition, supporting early handwriting
*fosters creativity and pride in personal artwork

OES Library has a lot to celebrate!
4 students (Ryker, Rylen, Dominick, and Isla) were recently recognized in the "Get Caught Reading Challenge." They each received a poster and a book to keep. 🕮
In addition, the library held an estimation contest regarding how many books there are in the OES Library, with the winner receiving a poster and a book. Azaliah's estimate of 16,000 books was only off by 45! The OES Media Center is home to 16,045 books. 📚
Mrs. Retzlaff's class is excited, as they earned a $25 gift certificate and classroom treat for being the first classroom to earn a Bingo during the Scholastic Book fair.
Congratulations to all, and keep up the good work reading!

November 4K Family Fun Night was all about "Being Thankful"...
Families came together to enjoy chili & chicken noodle soup for dinner.
They were then able to work together to create a placemat that was laminated so they can put it on their table at their own Thanksgiving dinner.
The big finale of the night was the caramel apple bar! There were syrups and toppings as far as the eyes could see (and the smiles proved just how yummy it was)!
We are thankful for all of our Omro Foxes students and families!

High school students in Mrs. Morse's Culinary Arts class just recently completed a unit on Garnishing. They used a variety of produce, tools, and their creativity to create a unique plate presentation.
Thriving Together Thursday:
A month of planning, a 12 hour shift, and 20,000 steps later...."10 Buckaroos"-- was open for business on Wednesday, November 5. This event served as a capstone project for the class and provided the students with a "real life" type of experience of working in the Restaurant and Food Service Industry.
Students in Mrs. Morse's Advanced Culinary Arts class applied for their roles and created this restaurant from the ground up. The Front of the House Staff-- Manager Dina, Host Blake, Waitstaff Jayden, Carson, and Vanessa--- decorated the dining room, set the tables, and served the customers. The Back of the House Staff-- Head Chef Dylan and Assistant Chefs Cole, Jazmyn, Walker and Nate-- chose the menu and prepared the food.
The class served over 70 guests for lunch and dinner. The menu consisted of: Buckaroo Burgers, Pulled Pork, and Loaded Mac and Cheese, with an optional side of Ham and Cheese Pasta Salad. Desserts included warm Apple Crisp and Brownie Sundaes.
"It was a memorable and enjoyable dining experience for our students, staff, and community. Thank you to all who came to dine and supported this class project." - Mrs. Cindy Morse
