Before I say "good bye", I'd like to say that even though I haven't mentioned it before, PLEASE don't put yourselves and your families at risk by going out to get any materials you might need to complete your work, like printed activities. I've tried, and keep trying, to give you options for completing your work without going out. You can always draw when illustrating is required, make the materials yourself, like in the case of the letters to form the vocabulary words; look for other materials at home, like using other magazines for this activity; or simply postponing the activity if you can't find any other alternative. The most important thing is that you STAY SAFE.
That being said, See you tomorrow!! Love you guys!
