Celebs want to help teachers and students get through virtual learning

Some celebrities in our country could be coming to a virtual classroom near you to help out teachers.

Comedian Gerry Dee has extended an invitation to schools across the country to appear on Zoom as many provinces switch back to online learning.

Meantime, fitness legends Hal Johnson and Joanne McLeod say they want to get in on the action and will host a body break with your class.

They are most famous for their short commercials in the ’90s promoting healthy lifestyles and exercise.

If you are a teacher, they are encouraging you to get in touch with them on social media to make this week of online learning a little easier.
