Northwood Students and Families,
We miss you! Our top priority is the health and safety of you and your families. Please practice good hand washing, social distancing, and enjoy this time with your families.
While at home:
- Read. Read. Read. Tell someone about what you have read and make text connections.
- Write stories about life at home (include illustrations).
- Practice your sight words.
- Practice your math facts. Talk about budgeting (bills and coins).
- Check out Time for Kids, Scholastic News, PBS Kids, and Just for Kids online.
- Get your exercise at home by doing push-ups, jumping jacks, and sit-ups 3 times a day.
- Keep a daily schedule. Go to bed early and drink plenty of water.
***Starting Wednesday, March 18th, Northwood Elementary and Winchester Elementary will be providing meals to children under 18. This is a drive up service whereby you will remain in your car to receive a meal for your child. This grab and go service will take place during the week from 11AM until 1 PM.***
All the best,
Mrs. Ferri and the Northwood Staff
