Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from Friday, December 8, 2023! These students were nominated by staff members or other students for demonstrating the Fox Four (Safety, Responsibility, Respect, or Positivity).
Staff members were nominated by students or other staff members for being a role model, an advocate for students, or having a positive connection with students.
Mrs. Thomas and some of her students have been hard at work to write and publish a book titled, "Oh English." According to the Dear Reader page, "the title was inspired by a second-grade classroom in the School District of Omro. During word study, if a rule or pattern contradicted something already taught, the teacher would put her hand to her forehead to signal the class to say, 'Oh, English'." This resonated with Mrs. Thomas, as many of us have had that very same thought when learning about the English language.
The book that students have written creates a rule guide to the more common patterns found in the English language. Students were fully engaged in the writing process, using text features to organize information, creating and revising rough drafts to become final drafts, and submitting their work to be published.
Congratulations to Mrs. Thomas and her OMS students on their soon-to-be-published piece. We are looking forward to having the book in our media center!
