Ms. Szalai's 5th Grade

Hi Everyone – I know I am not supposed to be blogging during spring break but…I just listened to our governor and learned we need to stay home until the end of the month. I thought about you guys right away. I know some of you really are not happy about it but we need to do it to keep people safe and healthy. We can do this. We will have such a celebration when things get back to normal. All you guys are strong and come from good and loving homes (and just because a parent or sibling get angry with you … remember they still love you-they do). We got this – you got this. Remember to use patience and kindness. When you start to get grumpy or feel weird (which you will – it’s normal) go to your room do 10 jumping jacks, scream into a pillow – not too loud or you will hurt your throat, slowly take some deep breaths and count to 10 (or maybe to one million if you are really having a bad day). You can email me anytime day or night and I will get back to you. Love you guys – miss you.

PS – Don’t tell my bosses I blogged you during spring break.
