Gameday!

In Mrs. Smith’s first grade classroom, students practiced being Effective Communicators during a CKLA phonics lesson! Students worked together to build words using letter cards, listened carefully to their classmates, and explained how the “magic e” changed the vowel sound.
Students had to listen, speak, collaborate, and share their thinking as they worked together to build and read words. It was a fun, hands-on way for students to show that effective communication happens when we listen to others, share our ideas, and work together!

Come visit the OCHS FFA Farm Stand!
Everything available was grown, created, or prepared by OCHS FFA members and Ag students! Even the luffas were sourced locally and processed by students.
Stop by, support our students, and see their hard work in action!

Reminder: OCES Picture Day is TOMORROW!


Portrait in Practice: Effective Communicator
Our first-grade students were putting our Portrait of an Owsley County Learner into practice during phonics! Students listened carefully, thought about how changing a letter changed the vowel sound, and clearly shared their thinking with others.
