Veterans' Day Rocks!

Veterans' Day Rocks!

By:Maeve and Katie

Today, the whole school went to an assembly to honor our veterans! At the assembly Katie and Connor had their grandpa's there and they said what their names were and their branch of service. After all the kids said what their veteran's name and branch of service was, Mr.D sang America the Beautiful and we sang This Land is Your Land. After the assembly, Connor's grandpa came to share some facts about his time in the Army.  Katie's grandpa came also and talked about his time in the Navy. It was very exciting to hear that Mr.Ryerson (Katie's grandpa) had to use latitude and longitude to be in the navy and we were just learning about that! What a special way to celebrate Veterans' Day!


This is Mr.Benson talking about where he traveled with the Army.


This is Connor and Katie waiting to speak about their Grandpa's!
