Rykers' Ridge Learning Commons
Creativity, Curiosity, Innovation
February/March 2017
It's an exciting month with a lot going on in the Learning Commons! Global School Play Day, World Read Aloud Day, Random Acts of Kindness, Google Expeditions, and Digital Learning Day.
If it's March, it's Dr. Seuss and Read Across America, St. Patrick's Day and Spring Break! We will have fun and exciting activities tied to Dr. Seuss and St. Patrick's Day themes.
Thank you,
Mrs. Stevenson and Ms. Schmitt
