Your Daily Menu of Choices for Learning at Home

YOUR Daily Menu of Choices 

for Learning at Home

Here is a menu of daily activities to continue your amazing learning at home. Following this schedule should take about 4 hours of your time each day. I have included helpful links to online resources here and on the class blog as well, if you would like to take on extra challenges. For now, please take photos of what you are enjoying or are super proud of, and email/text it to me so we can continue to celebrate our learning together. I miss you all and am very excited to see and share what you are learning!

I THINK YOU, KIDS HAVE THE MOST FANTASTIC IDEAS AND WOULD
LOVE FOR US TO SHARE THEM! Let’s keep love and inspiration flowing
this way! (Unfortunately I cannot post video clips, so stick with photos.) And remember to give your brain a kiss for being there for you every day!

I love you to the moon! xoxo! Miss Jutka
