White Oak ISD Community,

Due to the Covid-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, today Governor Greg Abbott
announced that all schools in Texas will be closed until midnight on April 3 rd , with
a tentative reopen date of Monday, April 6 th . Therefore, White Oak ISD will
remain closed until that time.
Please note that this is a very fluid situation, and this could be extended depending
upon recommendations the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS),
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and so-forth.
White Oak ISD will continue the distance learning plan developed by campus
administration to try and have a continued educational process. Please check
campus webpages, Facebook, blogs etc., for any updated information.
Please know that we are looking at every possible ramification that these decisions
will have on our students moving forward. We will keep their needs and interests
in the forefront of that decision-making process.
We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause and the disruption of
routine, but the health and well being of all Roughnecks will always be our guiding
compass.
Please continue to check the White Oak ISD website, Facebook pages, blogs and
other local news outlets for updates.

If you pick up the work packets from school, here is some additional information regarding two of the papers inside of the packet. If you have any questions or need help with any of the papers in the packet, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].

Butterfly paper – watch the following video –
Life Cycle of Butterfly
Please feel free to color the butterflies. Under the first butterfly, write 3 facts about butterflies. Underneath the second butterfly, write 3 opinions about butterflies.

I also wanted to explain the Understanding Area work page. Here are the answers for the fill in the blanks. Area is the SPACE a shape takes up. It is measured in SQUARE UNITS such as square inches or square centimeters. To find the area simply count the squares. Area is Squarea! Students can learn more about area by watching this video –

During the next few weeks of “social distancing”, the kids may be looking for things to do.
