I am reminding you that this week is Spring Break! So we will not be messaging you this week.
During Spring break, please focus on fun things that do not include a screen or computer. They are getting enough of that during learning time.
Here is a link with 125 things to do with your kids while school is closed.
Have a great week!
I miss you!
Mrs. Tennant
The link below leads you to some activities built around the Harry Potter books. It was created in part by Scholastic Books so should be a great experience.

Each day at 3:00 the Cincinnati Zoo goes live on Facebook. Each day they visit a different animal and you get to see the zoo keepers interact with the animals. All you have to do is follow the Cincinatti Zoo & Botanical Garden on Facebook.
Here is a link to Storyline online, It has a great selection of stories read aloud by members of the Screen Actor’s Guild. You may see some famous people reading to you! Enjoy!

I am sure the kids are starting to go a bit stir crazy not being able to leave the house other that for a walk or such. The following link has many virtual field trips that they can go on and explore different places. Enjoy!
During this time that schools are closed, please keep your child on a routine if possible. Have them spend time reading each day. Especially out loud to someone. Also practice math skills. If they do not practice these skills, the will forget what they have already learned. Most of their Classroom teachers have posted classwork to do online. Please have them work on that. If you have any questions for me (Mrs. Tennant) please email me at tennanc@dearbornschools.org . I will check my email several times a day. The Maples School website has many links to to sites that have educational activities, please visit that.
