Like many of you - my travel days are pretty limited right now. The Coronavirus has pretty much put all of our plans on hold. My husband, seven year-old son and I have started to work from home and self-isolate. Many friends and family have shared their tips and ideas for home learning...so I am sharing them here...I will continue to update and add to this page so that we can all help each other out. Be strong, stay safe and be kind...
