  • Weekly calendars with lessons will be shared on Sundays on Class Dojo Story/ teacher blog/ and on Google Classroom
  • Weekly check-list to keep track of learning 
  • Check in with Class Dojo daily for messages from teachers
  • Individual teachers will schedule required academic Google Meets, please check your teacher’s Class Dojo

Spring Break!

While it is Spring Break, it is important to know that it is not what many consider a “normal” spring break. I was so excited to take a trip down to Savannah, GA, but I will do my part and stay home. I thought the following website would be a great way to do some garden activities at home: https://padlet.com/jowkarp/w0aptaf25ysz
