Unity is strength...when there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved.

I back at school! I'm excited to jump back into our classroom learning and shenanigans. Each day we will come together to learn and grow.

Feel free to use the links and videos on our site to support your learning.

There are several websites linked in the "Helpful Links and Videos" tab as well as under some "Subjects & Reference" tab that might be helpful for teaching or entertaining your students while they're at home. I'm also listing some sites below that may be more entertaining and available for keeping your kiddos happily distracted and to also give them and you outlets for anxiety and possibly restlessness. :)

Entertaining Activities for the Whole Family! :)

Times are constantly changing right now, so I'm continuing to link activities and interactive adventures for families to explore any time throughout the year below!

Go Noodle is Something We Use Everyday- Good Energy page - Parents, Guardians & Caregivers: We want to give kids ways to channel their incredible wells of energy by helping them to be more active, more mindful, more aware of themselves and their community, and to have fun while learning. Oh, and all of that applies to all of the adults in their lives too! It is our firm belief that children should be aware of what is going on in the world, especially as it relates to the novel coronavirus, but also not unduly burdened by it. To that end, we have worked around the clock to bring the best of GoNoodle to kids everywhere during this time. GoNoodle is awesome fun for the whole family! We love it when everyone does our dances, sings our songs, and plays GoNoodle together. It’s a daily ritual in most elementary schools across the U.S. (and many around the world) and we think it’s a super fun thing you can do with your little ones every day too!  Plus, we have another app called “GoNoodle Games” that is an awesome way to get your kids moving in front of the screen. Sign up for our emails and in the days and weeks ahead, we will send you weekly fresh, fun ideas for you and your kids well-beyond GoNoodle. Sign up to get these on the Good Energy page.
