Happy Spring Break

We hope you are enjoying your spring break.  We know this is a stressful time and many plans have been cancelled but we hope you can find fun things to do as a family at home.  We look forward to reconnecting with you after the break.  Here are some fun ideas of things to do while you are home:

Do a puzzle

Play a game

Create a piece of art from random things around the house (Ask your parents first)

Draw a picture

Write a letter to someone you care about

Go outside into your backyard or onto your balcony and listen to all the sounds of spring around you

Write a story

Call a friend and chat with them (Ask your parents first)

Send your teacher an email

Try a new recipe (Ask your parents first)

Have a good week.  We will be in touch soon!!


Thinking of you,

Mrs. Sampson and Mrs. Hancock
