As stated in my previous post, we will NOT have any assignments due this week. If your student is behind on any assignments and you want them to catch up this week, that would be great. If you’re looking for fun activities to do this week, look no further!

Monday (tomorrow) at 11:30, we will have our virtual class meeting. Have your student head to Google Classroom at 11:30 for the link (if they want to participate) and we will meet in our virtual class session! I can’t wait to see their smiling faces! (See previous blog post about the grid view extension for Google Chrome)

I will also be posting our daily read aloud of our new book which will be announced tomorrow morning.

I hope you all enjoy this week and take some time to relax. I hope your families are staying safe and healthy.
