Fall at Occoquan
Can it be we are heading into November? Hats and jackets are keeping our students warm as they enter for the day. Its been a great year at Occoquan Elementary. This is especially true when it comes to Technology use which continues to increase. Making integration seamless across the content areas remains one of our greatest goals. “Are You Smarter Than” posters listing technology grade level competencies have been placed in the hall ways to remind students and parents of PWCS requirements.. The Occoquan computer lab has been filled with students learning how to write descriptive paragraphs, make Excel time-lines, Kidspiration and Inspiration webs, as well as, rounding their decimals. Teachers have also been busy. They have been attending on site classes to learn more about software applications, available resources and using their SMART Boards. New equipment continues to arrive.The student responders are here and will soon be in the classrooms. After a strong beginning, we are well underway to providing our children with the skills they need to become successful learners in the global world of the 21st century.
