Memorial Day!

WOW!  What a great long weekend and we had such beautiful weather to help celebrate Memorial Day!  This week we are continuing to POP our balloons and have fun inside and outside of the classroom.  Today we watched a short video on United Streaming about the holiday and read a book titled Memorial Day.  We completed a worksheet outlineing some events that people attend during the holiday.  The class also did some partner writing.  They were to write about what Memorial Day means to them.  They had to illustrate and write 3 sentences.  They did a great job!  I will post some of their writings.  We are also making American Flags.  Pictures to come also.  We continue to have our count down on, 8 and counting here!
