Terrible air day in SF due to wildfires in all directions = great day to pull out one of my favorite books! I love using Sky Color by Peter H. Reynolds to teach kids about being flexible and challenging their assumptions. You can find a digital version on Epic www.getepic.com

At SF Speech for Kids! we LOVE ABCya for teletherapy games and activities. Just stumbled upon this adorable "make a mask" game. Each step in the activity has a little message like "A mask is a way for us to show we care about our community!" https://www.abcya.com/games/make-a-mask/

Let your creativity soar and make your very own virtual mask with ABCya's Make-a-Mask game. Customize your mask with patterns, stickers, and embroidered letters, and then print a copy to show your friends and teachers!
