Home Learning November 9^th

The weather looks great for today. I hope you can get outside to play and enjoy these beautiful Fall days. I miss you all and I cannot wait to be back together with you at school!

I would love to see a picture of you, as you are busy with your home learning or any fun activities you may be doing. Please share them with me at melanie.lamkey@nbed.nb.ca and I will add them to my teacher page to share with your friends.
