With local school buildings closed and many workers now working from home, The Newtown Bee asked local residents to submit photos and descriptions of the new “at home” life.

The pictures submitted for the week of April 3 show students venturing outside, completing school assignments, and monitoring siblings while they work.

Adults are home, too, of course, and for those working from home, family pets can prove to be adorable distractions, as proven by an accompanying photo.
