Congratulations to our OCES teachers who completed the entire course of Lexia LETRS.
Teachers were provided with an intensive, professional learning course of study based in the science of reading. The course taught the how, what, and why of literacy acquisition to improve instructional practice and achieve long-term systemic change in literacy instruction.
LETRS for elementary educators required a two year commitment and is an investment in teachers' literacy knowledge and professional practice. Our teachers gained essential knowledge and skills to master the fundamentals of literacy instruction required to apply and transform student learning.
Mr. McCoy's class has been learning about life cycles & releases the butterflies they have been observing!
After reading the book Flying Solo which is about early days of flight they researched how to make the best paper airplane. The winner in the first race which was planes made on their own was Camille Brewer and the winner of the second race, which was planes made at home was Madi Havicus and the winner of a 3rd race (due to a technical interference) was Marshall Turner! Congrats to all!
4th grade released butterflies after learning about their lifecycles.
Happy Mother's Day
