MEM Boredom Busters - New Blog!

  Losing your marbles?   We're here to help! Welcome to MEM Boredom Busters, a new blog as we do this crazy thing called "remote learning"! I hope you are ALL staying safe and healthy at home! We have been hard at work putting together some ideas to help all of our MEM families beat the boredom and blues with games, projects, activities and stories.  Each week we will publish a themed post chock full of fun! You are welcome to use our ideas to fill in those quiet moments, pry the kids away from the video-games, respond to the call of "I'm boooooooooored!", or to help your family come together after a day of working independently.  Our goal is to provide inspiration and promote togetherness. The ideas in our blog are supplementary and meant to help relieve the stress of isolation - they are not intended to replace daily instruction, and will not be graded!  Special thanks to our contributors:  Janet Carter, Judy Pantazis, Melissa H...

Happy Easter!
