Safe Routes to School

Snow, ice, and darker mornings make winter travel more dangerous for everyone – whether you are walking, driving, or rolling.

Tips for staying safe this season:
~ Give yourself extra time so you’re not rushing
~ Drive slowly and increase your following distance
~ Stay alert for pedestrians, especially near schools and crosswalks
~ Walk like a penguin – take short flat-footed steps to avoid slipping

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!
