Salute to our Veterans

What an incredible week! We welcomed guest teachers for Art Adventure this Monday morning, and will be privileged to work with them for two more sessions this fall--next Monday and the following Monday. Our class made a class honor quilt based on Native American artwork that we saw and learned about. Here are how ours turned out; each one unique and special, just like the students who made them!
Another obvious highlight this week was our class trip to see The Wizard of Oz production at the Children's Theater. Some of our favorite parts were the tornado, the melting of the Wicked witch of the West, and Toto the dog's appearance in the play.

Finally, this week we paid tribute to the men and women who have bravely served our country in the past and present in the United States Armed Forces. The students wrote a short note to our country's heroes, telling them why they are grateful to them. Some reasons were because our heroes are kind, brave, and they fight for our freedoms and keep the bad guys from ruling over us (direct quotes). I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed making the soldiers with the students! They did a phenomenal job!
