Parent Update - September Issue 3
What's Happening at
Mighty Oak Academy
We are now into our fifth week of school! We are excited to share with you what we've been doing and the plan for the next few weeks.
This week we continued to focus on our 1st 6 weeks curriculum, building powerpoint presentations about who we are and what we like, speaking positive affirmations to ourselves and learning how to related to each other through projects. Week five is in the books! and we're looking forward to week 6!
Wrapping Up the 1st Six Weeks program
Next week we will wrap up our focus on social emotional learning topics. While these topics will always be used during the school year the next six weeks we will start to focus on our academic curriculum paths and start preparing for more project based learning.
While we will be shifting focus to reading, writing, math, science and humanities we will use all the skills we've learned in the last six weeks to help us all learn better and know how to regulate our selves and relate to others.
