I normally wait until Saturday to show you all of our learning and activities from the week, but I had to share our Veteran’s Day learning today!
I want to dedicate this post to all of our military men and women and their families. It is their sacrifice that keeps us safe and free. We owe them our thanks every day. I especially want to dedicate this post to my favorite Navy vet and my favorite active duty solider:
My baby sister served in the US Navy for 8 years! My friend Kevin is currently serving in Afghanistan! True heroes in my opinion.
Becky and Kevin…and all of our men and women in uniform, this one is for you!!
This week is the letter H so we made HERO hats! They turned out even better than my tiny brain imagined!!! Love these!
If you would like the hero hats, just click on the picture to download your freebie! OR CLICK HERE!
We made these adorable soldiers from Peace, Love and Learning!
We used marbles to paint! Marble painting is so much fun! You place paint, marbles and paper in a box lid and roll away! We will be gluing the soldiers to our marble painting!
We wrote a thank you letter to soldiers. This one is on it’s way to Kevin in Afghanistan! Proud teacher moment: My buddy Freddie wrote his name all on his own for only the second time! Be proud Kevin, that was just for you!
We read two stories about Veteran’s Day and made a circle map of all the things we learned about our military men and women. The “don’t leave anyone behind” was not in either book but one of the ‘staches shared it as we were sharing! So proud!!!
