The students in room 7 have been busy learning about maps in social studies and nouns in English. We decided to put these two concepts together and create a town map of our own Noun Town. The students were excited to create this town map.
We have also been talking about place value in math. To have more fun with this concept the students created their own Math Monsters out of hundreds, tens and ones blocks.
October is fun in kindergarten! Some things we’ve been doing this month include, learning about pumpkins, doing spooky crafts, and exploring new centers that help us practice our kindergarten skills!

In Computer classes, Our Lady of Angels students are finishing up their lessons on digital citizenship, including the importance of making positive digital footprints, understanding copyright and fair use, and overall internet safety. Students are also beginning to work on keyboarding and will soon be creating Halloween themed animations!
STEM classes are expanding their design skills through the use of various design sites to build digitally – from virtual Legos to 3D designs on Tinkercad. Seventh and eighth grade students have been working with the video equipment and green screen to pre-record morning announcements for the entire school! Homeroom 8 – 16 will be working on a special Halloween edition of the morning announcements to play next Friday, October 29.

Welcome to Music at OLA! This year we have been hard at work already singing and playing instruments! The work we have done so far will give us a good foundation for the rest of the year.
Welcome back to Room 20! Since you were last here, we celebrated Peace Day as a school on September 22nd. We also had virtual conferences with our parents and teacher, Miss Stary.
On October 7th, we took our first test in Math class. Miss Stary is pleased to announce that Caidence, Rylan, and Sam have all become Level 1 Math Wizards! A Math Wizard is a student who earns an A+ on their math test (98% or better). Each of them received a certificate, and their names were put on our Math Wizards’ Hall of Fame board in the classroom.
We’ve also started building a class ofrenda (altar) to remember our family, friends, and pets who have passed away. We are doing this as part of our preparation for the celebration of Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) which we are learning about in Spanish class.
