Good morning!

I hope you all enjoyed the time to catch up with your work yesterday and perhaps participated in the field day activities as well! I am LOVING your fantasy stories and book trailers. Remember, you MUST have your book trailer and story ready to publish to the Padlet at the same time – you will not have the opportunity to edit and add. We will talk about this more in our zoom session this morning. 

You have a 9:00am zoom with Mr. Borgia and either the 10:00am or 11:00am small group with our class. The day ends with Ms.Sorensen at 2:30 with library broadcast. 

Planner’s ready? Let’s get started…
