I’m going to start doing read alouds on Zoom for the students. Any recommendations for upper elemetary? Maybe something uplifting to help battle the anxiety they might be feeling?

It’s probably not a big risk, but just wanted to warn you 😁

I did live zoom read aloud with my kids. I wish I had chosen something easier, but we read Call of the Wild. Then we watched the movie together on zoom after the last day of school. It wasn't mandatory, but we all still wanted to have contact. If we end up streaming this year, I am going to pick something much more light-hearted.

Sweaty post-workout question. If I finish a bike or run in the heat I am usually just pouring sweat for the next 15 or so mins. So I've gotten into the habit of just putting a towel or yoga mat down on the floor and laying/stretching until I am not going to throw sweat everywhere or step in to the shower and step out still sweating. Is there a better version of this maybe for recovery or even just not wasting time waiting?
