Welcome back to Teaching Tuesday! Great work to everyone who completed last week’s activities! This week, we will be learning more about Nanaimo Clippers 2019-2020 Captain Ethan Scardina!
These activities are designed for students in Grades 1-7. We recognize that not every child will be able to complete all of the activities and that’s okay.
We worked hard to include creative ways you can help your child develop their language arts, math, science, and art skills. We hope you and your child enjoy going through these workbooks over the next few months.
We are not educational professionals, these activities should not replace course materials you may receive from your child’s teacher(s) but are meant to provide additional material and entertainment for your child.
Once you complete an activity, please email it to [email protected] to be entered to win various prizes!
