Good morning and happy Friday everyone!

This was a busy week with learning a new unit and writing fairy tales.
I cannot wait to read them all!

Next week I will be hosting some word games, kahoot, whole class prodigy, guided drawings, show and share and some other fun activities on the meet.
I will also give kids two blocks a day to have some socialization with their friends. Similar to our lunch breaks and recess!

Hope you all have a great day and enjoy your warm weekend!
Stay safe :)
