Today we celebrated Veteran's Day with some fantastic, authentic learning experiences. We enjoyed learning about some of the Veterans (and active military) in our families! Thank you to all that participated! We also had opportunities to hear from students who have family members involved in the military.
Payton's grandpa came to have lunch with her and talk with our class about his experiences. We got to hear about the different badges on his uniform, see pictures of other uniforms, and hear about where he ate and slept. Thank you so much for coming in!!
Lydia brought in pictures of her mom, Kristin, and her time in the service! We really enjoyed seeing them!
Payton later also showed pictures of her grandpa and uncle!
KayteJo brought in pictures of her uncle and grandpa. We enjoyed hearing about the veterans in your family! Thank you, KayteJo!
Layla brought in some photographs and artifacts from her dad, Josh! We loved seeing the photos and being able to see the badges! Thank you for sharing with us!
Zachary brought in photos of his dad and his older brother. We enjoyed seeing them! Thank you, Zachary!
Weylin has strong roots in the army! His dad and mom both came in to talk with us today. We enjoyed hearing about their time in the army together. We got to learn about the different badges on their uniforms, their helmets and schooling. My favorite part was hearing about Weylin's dad's favorite memory from his time in the army... meeting Weylin's mom. :) Thank you both SO much for coming in!
