In my house, we MONDAY & THURSDAY- tried to get out on some local hikes and we also Period 1 : 9:00am-9:50 tried to get in some bike rides. My family did Period 3: 10:00am-10:50 everything we could to avoid computer screens and Period 5 : 11:30am-12:20 I hope you were able to do the same. It is hard to Period 7: 12:30pm-1:20 believe that we are almost halfway through our very unusual school year, as there are only 14 more days of classes left for Semester 1! During these WEDNESDAY days, I encourage you to continue to build Per 3: 10:00-10:30am momentum for Semester 2 and beyond. I know that there are things you can control and things TUESDAY & FRIDAY- that you cannot.
