UNREST IN AMERICA
(Parent Guidance Requested While Reading/Viewing This Part)
As Americans wrestle with COVID-19 and all that has come with it, many people across the United States are wrestling with another concern - racial justice and racial inequity - as another sad incident in our country has sparked protest in many cities.
At school, we talked quite a bit about racial fairness and the struggle for civil rights for everyone. Much of what we talked about was based around stories we read during our Remarkable People Through History unit. Stories about Rosa Parks, Joe Louis, Effa Manley, Gordon Parks, Wangari Maathai, and many others highlighted the struggles people go through based on gender, color, ethnicity, etc.
As children and their caregivers try to make sense of the problems and unrest in our country RIGHT NOW, as it relates to the death of George Floyd, this book may be helpful in understanding this complicated situation.
*Please watch/listen to this book with an adult caregiver so that important questions and conversations can happen.
VIDEO MEETINGS THIS WEEK
Video meetings will be scheduled for Tuesday and/or Wednesday, this week. Look out for the invite link. I hope to see as many of you as possible!

PACKING UP CLASS 220 Teachers are finally allowed back into the school building, after 2 months away. It should be very interesting to see what the room looks like, after we left it in March thinking we'd be back in a few weeks. I wish you could be there with me, but we're not ready for that, yet. I'll be making paper bags for each of you to collect your schoolwork that is still in class. It will be fun for you to look back on so many pieces of work. If there is anything else in the room you think you left behind, send me an email to tell me what to look for and I'll do my best. Wish me luck! SPACE X ROCKET LAUNCH POSTPONED... BUT WILL HAS HIS OWN ROCKET LAUNCH... Check out his driveway rocket launch video.
