Oxbow Elementary

Mrs. Perkins will be hosting Empower Hours in the Media Center beginning the week after our Book Fair! One Empower Hour will be Monday mornings where students will have the opportunity to start the day with a read aloud story (most students are so sad we normally get 10-15min to read together on Library Days! I want to offer an extended reading time to those who love to be read to!) The other Empower Hour will have two sessions: K-2 on Tuesday afternoons 3-5 on Thursday afternoons This will be a time to gather and participate in social activities such as puzzles, lego building, coloring, board games, and more! The library doesn’t always have to be a quiet subdued place- and Book Dragons after school is a chance to highlight the community aspect of such a wonderful space! Please feel free to contact Mrs. Perkins with any questions.

Student's from the JOI Club at Lakeland High School (LHS) went to Oxbow Elementary today to build Leprechaun traps with second graders. Our littles love when the bigs come to visit!

Oxbow's Library has some new arrivals! Check them out here.

After reading "The Three Billy Goats Gruff," by Paul Galdone, the Kindergarteners put their Engineering skills to work. During their Tech. Time they worked on making their very own bridges for their Goats to cross. What a great way to demonstrate their STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, Math) skills!
