Good Morning First Graders!
       Today is Thursday. We would normally have P.E. today at school. What can you do today to stay active and moving? Get outside? Do a GoNoodle? Play tag with your family? Go for a walk or hike? I'm going to take Bella for a long walk later today! Have a terrific day learning at home!

Love, Miss Lloyd
