Happy Veterans Day!
To prepare for this special holiday we spent yesterday learning about
who a Veteran is and what they do. We
were so happy to have Mrs. Johnston with us for the entire day who is an Air
Force Veteran. The crew loved asking her
questions! We learned about the different
branches in the military. We
brainstormed character traits of a Veteran and wrote letters to soldiers. The crew had fun marching, learning to salute,
singing a poem about how soldiers are brave, and even learning a marching cadence about
place value. We read the book by Eve
Bunting called, “The Wall.” It was a day
of realizing what Veterans have done for us and how thankful we are to them for
protecting us.
