Hopefully the prizes and friendly competition will be just what our teachers need to get through the next three weeks before we have a well-deserved break.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-511 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board-300x212.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board-1536x1086.png 1536w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/April-Blogging-Board.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-514 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog-300x212.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"470\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog-1536x1086.png 1536w, https:\/\/melissathompson.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Blogging-Board-Prizes-blog.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1IoyNs3Oh9ZOMZoJIwGbt_W_SvVdeic_QreU6Gc0mMeM\/copy\">here<\/a> for an editable version.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a long while since I last blogged.
