Our 2nd graders were surprised when "flat Ms. Snodgrass" showed up in their mailboxes! She has been accompanying them on adventures during the stay at home order. She has been reading, playing Mario cart, taking pets on walks and checking out birds nests! Where will she go next?

7th graders participated in an activity called circles of control. This is an activity that encourages students to focus on the parts of their lives that they can control. Students wrote what they can control within themselves, within their homes, and regarding remote learning.
