Happy Spring Break!
St. Peter's School is a Catholic School, so we have a Spring Break from April 9 - April 17.
However, UPK is a Public School Classroom, and public schools are not on Spring Break.
I want to give you options that are easy to do, and which will count for our At Home Learning.
Choose an activity under "Spring Break Activities." I will post one activity each day.
Next week, choose a Virtual Field Trip to have fun exploring, and have your child tell you why they like it. Send me a message with their words, or have them draw a picture of it (Drawing paper will be posted on Tuesday). There will be one assignment for next week.
