This live and interactive online game show uses multi-media trivia to combine team spirit, character education, and curriculum enforcement. There are also several video and audio bonus questions with pop culture trivia (movies, music, TV) to keep the game light and fun. Teams generate points by answering correctly and by demonstrating good sportsmanship and team spirit. It’s a great way to work together and connect remotely!

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Day: Friday, March 10th
Just like students need to learn to read and write, they must also be explicitly taught social skills and how to manage their emotions. SEL improves social skills and academic performance, reducing emotional stress and problem behaviors. It is the foundation for kids to succeed in school, careers, and life. Your School Counselors teach live SEL classes every Monday. These classes are free for all Sage Oak students. Additionally, we teach SEL lessons for our VLA students and HS students taking our seminar courses. We also share recorded SEL lessons for families to review independently. Last, students can use their Instructional Funds to purchase SEL materials. If you have any questions about the benefits of SEL or how to support your child’s social-emotional learning, please don’t hesitate to contact your Sage Oak counselor.
