Dear Students,
I know today is Saturday but I’ve been thinking about you all a lot today. First things first, I hope you washed your hands A LOT!
I hope you did something to get your mind off your hockey or gymnastics tournaments being cancelled. I hope you had a memorable birthday, T!!
I hope you played outside today. Maybe you danced, drew with chalk, played roller hockey, or went on a walk through nature.
I hope you did something kind today for your mom or dad or a sibling.
I hope you read. Remember that reading challenge we talked about yesterday?! Yeah, I already finished my first book today- bring it on! 🙂
The book I just finished totally didn’t end how I wanted it to. I might have to write my version of the perfect ending to it tomorrow. Lastly, I hope you write if you’re feeling confused, worried, if you have a story to tell, a letter to write, a cupcake menu to create, an ideal ending to a favorite book, or anything else that might lead you to write.
Keep washing your hands,
Ms. Woodruff
What a great letter to send to your students. I hope they did at least some of what you suggest, especially the washing-hands part. I hope you don’t get too overwhelmed by their responses that you can’t respond to them all. Good luck, and be safe and healthy.

You capture this so very well, Allie. I tell my loveys, but I don’t think they quite believe me that I carry them with me everywhere.
Good luck on that reading challenge!

Great encouragement on ways students can be productive and creative while on hiatus – and a reminder of how much you love and care for them.
