We’ve hit the 2 week mark since we were in school last and I am really missing my students!! We are learning so much about how we can still connect, both for academic work and some fun (like a morning rubix cube challenge) @PresenceLearn @GoogleForEdu @WPSWeStillCan #WiltonWayCT pic.twitter.com/7ZQufYAukc
