"The Duke" one of the main Four Tops!



This morning our second grade class had an awesome guest speaker.  This guest speaker was special because he is the grandfather- Papa, of one of our classmates.  Our guest speaker was Duke Fakir, some of you may know him as one of the original Four Tops.  Mr. Fakir read a story to our class- he is an animated story reader, and he spoke to us about what it means to follow our dreams.  He also showed us a few of the cool moves of the Four Tops.  Second graders please share your comments about the conversation "The Duke" had with our class.
