Snow Day Agenda

 Happy Snow Day! 

 I hope everyone is safe and cozy at home. This is a great day to catch up on some work if you are not finished something. Many of you have a healthy menu to work on. Also, if you are not finished your writing on demand #2 (from yesterday) please do that. The writing prompt can be found in the assignment. I have also posted a "Snow Day" choice board for you to complete in Google Classroom. You need to pick an activity under each letter. I will check in on Google Meet at 12 p.m. for anyone who has questions. The link for this can be found on the banner above. 

Hope you have a great day! 

Mrs. Breau 

P.S. Remember to bring your snow pants tomorrow:)
