Happy Monday! :) We have another Spirit Week this week and I will start giving students a Dojo point for each day that they participate. I posted the days on the Class Story. Also, I am going to set-up a Zoom video chat with the whole class this week. Most likely sometime on Friday. I will let you know when I figure out a time. I know the class wants to see each other, and I miss all of their faces! :)

I hope that you all are able to enjoy the day despite the craziness going on! I want to say a quick thank you for everyone being so flexible with this new format of learning. It seems that yesterday went pretty well. I so appreciate your help with this as we try our best to continue learning for our students despite being out of school.

*If your child needs a break from assignments or even just for fun, here’s the link to an Art for Kids Hub video teaching them how to draw a leprechaun. There are lots of videos so feel free to let them choose a different one if they want to! We’ve done these in class several times and they love it! This can also make up for their art specials that they missed yesterday. Video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQXvBKUDinE
