Fortis 2nd Grade Tues/Thurs 1/16/23-1/20/23

 Hi Families!

We had a successful first week back! The kids seemed super excited to see each other and yesterday we said a special prayer at the end of the day based on student requests for family members and pets.  

This week I will be asking each student to recite "The Ingenious Little Old Man" by John Bennett. Please have your child practice this weekend and be ready to recite it in front of the class on Tuesday.

Please remember to tear off and send in the previous week's Stuart Little assignments each Tuesday as well as the red History journals.

Have a great weekend!
