HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! MARCH 17th
Good Things:

Sheiko Smile Team
Students spreading Kindness.
Hang in There Sheiko Families
While we have created amazing lessons and activities so that students are able to continue their learning, one of the most important things we want for our students, is for them to feel safe and connected to family. If there is anything we can do to help ease the anxiety, to support the families, please reach out to us via email. You may email me directly or your child's teachers. It is my goal to call at least 10 families per day to check-in and see how things are going. I would encourage you to create a daily plan to check-in with your family and friends to see how they are doing also. We are all in this together, we are stronger together and lastly, "Be the reason, someone smiles today".
Setting Up Spaces for Learning at Home
Create a daily schedule.
Create a space for learning games and books.
Create organizational bins for each child equipped with supplies for learning.
