We’ve recently learned about why St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated, where it originates from, and who St. Patrick was. In lieu of St. Patrick’s Day, a simple snack and some fun is in store for the second graders next Monday, March 17th!
It’s that time of the year! Some children are in need of supplies such as pencils, erasers, glue sticks, and crayons. Reminders will be written in their planners. Thank you!
Are you interested in visiting our classroom to share some fun and read a book to our class? If so, please let me know as soon as possible so we can set up a date! We’d love to have you! Who will be our next MYSTERY READER?
