Friday News for Oct 7-11

What a windy day, eh? We had a fun and crazy Friday here at school today.

Some highlights from the week:
Math - We learned all about patterns this week! Patters in clothes, patters in our classroom, patterns on a number grid. We designed our own pattern square too!


Bible - Continued on in the story of Isaac and retold the story of Jacob and Esau using little finger puppets.

Reading - Read a super interesting book called Tikki Tikki Tembo. We stopped in the middle of the book and drew our prediction to how we thought the book would end.


Important Announcements and Upcoming Events:
Please check the OCSI website for any announcements about school closure because of a typhoon. I think the administration tries to make the decision by 6am. So continue to check after that time. I will also try to put it on my website whenever I get the news. If anything else happens and we are unable to get the word out, we will use the phone tree that our wonderful room moms have made for us.

Also, OCSI follows the military weather advisory that follows a scale called TCOOR. If we are in TCOOR 1 for a typhoon there is no school. You can check for yourself here - http://weather.kadenaforcesupport.com/update/tccor.htm
