I lived through SARS in Hong Kong in 2003. The coronavirus is spreading and it is hard to buy masks now. Part of today's morning meeting is to teach students how to wash their hands properly and when to do so. That can help safeguard our children from the virus.

I try to give my students some writing prompts each day. They can write a lot, or just a sentence about it. I hope it will get them into a habit of producing in English.
