Hello Lionsgate families!

As we begin 2nd semester, we reflect on the past to help with the future! I am going to try a new way to view what the lessons are for each week. If you click the link below, you will be directed to a google document listing the plans for the week with links to materials that will be used. I will try to visit the LGA site to periodically update for your viewing pleasure. Feel free to continue to email me with any questions- mpfeffer@lgamn.org. Thanks!
