Sometimes writing a test is differentiated instruction at Oasis.

ASC students tell their Social Justice course teachers that writing tests make them nervous. So, they are given the opportunity to practice here. All who wrote the test did amazingly well. Congrats to the students. We celebrated with cupcakes.

Night of Dred








On Saturday night October 30, the puppets that ASC visual arts students worked on during the month come to life at Night Of Dred at Dufferin Grove. http://www.blogto.com/city/2010/11/night_of_dread_2010/

Student Take to the Streets with Thriller



Getting Ready for the performance - A little makeup and hair please...



Now if we can only remember the moves...

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...











A couple of weeks before Hallowe'en, ASC students learn, rehearse, and prepare to perform thriller at Much Music, Dundas Square, and Old City Hall. Among the fans taking pictures and hooting and hollering were community council members, parents, and fans - including veejay Sarah Taylor.

Parents get into the act
