I hope you are continuing to enjoy the home learning that is made for you each week. Us teachers have really enjoyed seeing all the wonderful you have produced on Padlet. Keep it coming! I also hope you have been enjoying our videos online. I can’t believe Mrs. Elphick’s videos! We had a meeting over the phone and I was amazed to see she has created a green screen in her home so she can add cool backgrounds. She’s like a producer! I have some photos for you all to see what I have been up to since my last message. Enjoy Here is Padge with a tiger from Google 3D! It was my nephews 4th birthday in April.
