E-Learning Tuesday March 31

Good morning! 

It was great to have 100% attendance in our Zoom session this morning! Thank you all for showing up. I’ve loved looking at your work today – so many thoughtful responses to the See,Think,Wonder, several beautiful heart maps and detailed responses to the Cultural Universals work. Keep it up third graders! You are all amazing 🙂 

As you begin to plan your day, make time for snack & recess. Taking a mental break and a screen break is really important! Be sure to plan at least one special today by visiting the Heathcote Gateway and seeing what your teachers have waiting for you. 

Our question Padlet is still active, so please add your questions here: E-Learning Questions

You may decide to write it on paper and take a picture, draw it out with the texting tool, record yourself reading your poem, upload an image of the poem or type it in the note option. Then use the mic to record yourself. We can’t wait to hear all the beautiful poems you will be writing!
