Dear Friends,
I hope you enjoyed spring break with your families. This will be the fourth week that you are at home instead of at school during the day. Fortunately, we are still able to learn together!
I have many books, activities, and projects to share with you in the weeks ahead. Let's keep learning!
Love,
Ms. Kaim
