You can be creative for this: A Lenten prayer, a Lenten Promise, a Lenten calendar with promises for the season, some Lenten artwork. Remember the liturgical colour for the season is purple, so try to include this in your homework. You could do this on Google Classroom or write / draw your own to bring in.
