Our class is doing a nice job at following our safety protocols at school. They are keeping their distance from each other, wearing masks, washing their hands, and using hand sanitizer. Although they'd really like to be closer to their 2nd grade friends from Ms. Anderson's class, we stay far apart during our recess time outside. It isn't easy to keep those masks over mouths and noses during most of the day, but these kids are champs who never complain. Keep it up, kids -- you're a great example for a lot of adults!
