Mrs. Keester's Class

Welcome to Mrs. Keester's website!

I will be using this website to inform you of assignments and information that will be helpful as we continue our distance learning adventures.

Wonders - The students will click on Wonders and then go to 2020 Keester. They will then use their own code to log in. I emailed their code to you a couple of weeks ago. It is the 3 object code.

Go Noodle is a fun site to get your kids moving. It is a good site for exercise.
