May 4-22

Mrs. Jordan, First Grade, Check Elementary School

Hello students! I miss seeing you every day and hope that you are staying safe and healthy. Below are some activities that can keep your mind sharp and allow you to practice what we’ve learned this year. Read or have someone read to you for 30 minutes per day and select one or two activities to complete each day. Families can work together to decide which activities you will do each day. Please reach out to me with any questions. You can have your parents email me at jordanl@floyd.k12.va.us and we can schedule a video chat if needed. I will continue to check in with you this last month of the year by email, Zoom/Google Meet, Seesaw, and by phone. Please login to Seesaw to see activities and messages from me. Let me know how I can help you!

Love, ~Mrs. Jordan
