This week we spent some time learning about Veterans Day. We talked about what a veteran is. Several students realized that have a veteran in their family or that they know someone who is a veteran. We read some poems about veterans and read a Weekly Reader about a female veteran. We honored the veterans at our annual Veterans Day assembly by reciting one of our poems and singing some patriotic songs. As a final activity each student wrote a letter to a veteran. Mrs. Kennedy delivered the letters to the veterans at North Shore Community College. Click here to see all the ways that Fuller Meadow Students honored our veterans.
What a GREAT way to acknowledge Veteran's Day! Thank you for exposing the children to such an important day.
