A NOTE FROM MRS. JORDAN: Hello, Within these trying times we are experiencing, one thing I have noticed is the amount of families taking walks in the community has increased. Let's make those walks even more fun and create a "Mantua Community Chalk Museum". If everyone took a little bit of time and some chalk...imagine the pictures, designs, and inspirational messages that could cover our sidewalks! Use this link to see a few chalk designs that my daughter and I created. Join us in spreading cheer and positivity throughout our community! Mrs. Jordan htmlnjordanjmt.weebly.com/chalk-designs.html Please send pictures of your creations to Mrs. Jordan at [email protected] or to Mrs. Moyer at [email protected]

The Friday Four, March 20th
CONGRATULATIONS! You have been an online student for 4 days! With one day notice, you have changed your educational life. Instead of a brick building, hallways, and a schedule, you've adjusted to working independently, you've followed directions and have done something you've had no time to question. But you did it! And we are SO PROUD OF YOU!
Today will be the Friday Four: Finish It, Fix It, Fresh-air, & Family Finish It: Please finish all of Monday thru Thursday's Assignments. There have been 7 total pages. Yay for you if you have done all your work!! Fix It: Check every assignment.
If it has a grade and has been returned to you, it is finished and there is nothing more for you to do. You do not have to turn it in again.
If it does not have a grade, but has been returned to you, this means you have comments from either Mrs. Forte and/or Mrs. Moyer and you need to do further work on the assignment. Look for the personal comments. Make sure you do everything that is asked, and double check the whole assignment before turning in again.
If you fix an assignment and turn it back in, please check back to make sure it is graded later in the day. It is possible that you may need to make more corrections for the assignment to count.
Fresh-air: When you have fixed and finished everything, find something fun to do outside today. The weather is supposed to be in the 70's and sunny, but also is not supposed to last thru the weekend, so do it today! (Make sure you have permission from your parent(s) and practice safe social distancing.) Here are a few ideas:
Take a walk. Before you go, pick a shape or color. Look for that shape or color in all the things around you. If you have a camera, take pictures of the five favorite things you find. Feel free to share in an email with us!
Make an obstacle course with things in your yard (make wise choices - it's not the time to get hurt). Time yourself to see how fast you can go. See if you can beat your own time.
Take a book outside. Read in the fresh air.
Lay back on the ground and look at the clouds. See if you can find any shapes/pictures of things in the clouds.
Sit and practice your Mindfulness. Breathe. Journal. Yoga.
Family: Remember this is new for everyone. Find something nice to surprise a family member with - and try to do it as a surprise. Maybe make a card or write a note; help by cleaning up; play with a sibling (without fighting). Have a great weekend! We will see you here online on Monday!
