E-Day #4 Message

Good Morning, Boone Meadow Community -


  • Wednesday's SEL lessons: I hope you found yesterday's counselor/SEL lessons beneficial for your young learners. Feedback from families was positive. Today's lessons switch back to your child's classroom teacher(s) with content and instruction from across the curriculum.
  • Related Arts rotation - Please don't forget to have your child engage in their Related Arts experiences. Wellness, Art, Music, STEM are all important expressions and experiences for your students during these days away from the schoolhouse. We want to continue supporting well-rounded, whole-child development. (more info on rotations below)
  • Thank you for participating in Wild Socks Wednesday! I had no idea there were so many varieties of socks. One of my new goals is to collect more fun socks for my big feet. Click here to view/post the fun socks collection! https://padlet.com/thundley1/kxquoz0dag5q (more info located above)
  • Community Challenge - My message today encourages families/students to leave inspirational chalk messages and/or pictures on sidewalks in your neighborhood for others to see when they go out for a stroll. Although it will most likely be rainy the next couple of days, this will be a great weekend activity when the sun visits again. (Later in the week, I will create a Padlet to record some of our sidewalk messages.)


Be well my friends,

Tom
