Hi there! Just want to check in after nearly 5 days of not being in school...
I hope everyone is adjusting to this 'social distancing' well. Hopefully the spread of COVID-19 will slow down, and we'll be able to meet back in school sooner, rather than later.
Until then, please check the original history blog (http://mrgalanis.blogspot.com/) to find updates and work for all history classes.
This wasn't a break anybody was really expecting, so think about ways you can use your time well! Some relaxing, something to keep your mind and body active.. mix it up even if things are slowing down :)
