Continued Weekly Activity
Timeline:
Talk about important milestones in your child’s life and create a timeline that reflects a few of these experiences. Think of two to four noteworthy events in the child’s past such as when a child was born or took his/her first steps, began school or an important family event such as a new home or sibling, etc. You can draw or include pictures on the timeline! Please email a picture of any completed work to MsMcGarryCOVID19@gmail.com Thank you to all the students and parents that have sent me pictures of the children's work! I will be adding more pictures as they come in!
