"How to hand-wash Catholic style" reads the headline on an informational graphic from the Diocese of Dallas.

It suggests Catholics say the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be as they follow the protocol for hand-washing being recommended around the globe as one of many ways for people to protect themselves against the coronavirus, designated COVID-19 by world health authorities.

"Clean hands are life savers ... and prayers save souls!" says the Dallas diocesan guidance on hand-washing for 30 to 45 seconds.

Hello Lovely Learners. I miss you.  It’s the last week of school and I bet everyone is excited about summer.  There are so many things to enjoy in the summer; a wading pool or sprinkle in the yard, riding bikes, eating ice cream, sleeping in a tent in the back yard and catching fireflies.  One of my favorite things about summer is eating watermelon.  This week my story is The Watermelon Seed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gp9F50QzRa0  The second video shows you how to draw a slice of watermelon; Watermelon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72TRW9NxFeE

There are so many summer things to draw. Have fun.  If you have any questions or want to share your art, I would love to hear from you. kmaggard@stekcschool.org  Have a fantastic summer!
