Hello Students! My name is Ms. Ward and I am the school social worker for OIAM/OIAHS. Welcome to social skills learning page and the 2020-2021 school year. This year has surprised us all with the COVID-19 and its effect on everyone worldwide so we will be learning health and safety precautions of hand washing, wearing masks and 6 feet social distancing because our health comes first. We will watch videos on the topics of positive behavior, bullying, helping peers and classroom motivation. I will also have open group discussions about social media and its effects on society, homework organization, healthy diets and open floor topics. Most of all, I want to make this a stress-free and enlightening school year for my students. Remember, I am here for all of you.
