Veteran's Day!

We engaged in many stations throughout the day in celebration of Veteran's Day.  We learned so much information and truly gained a wonderful understanding of the importance of serving our country.  Thank you Veterans!!!

We started our day with Mrs. Blair (guidance counselor), where we listened to a read aloud and watched a video about the history of Veteran's Day.

We talked to Mrs. Baney who taught us about the importance of the American flag.  

We learned about clothing, gear, and even did some drills.

We listened to the experiences of Mr. Kuhlman and Mr. & Mrs. Forsythe in the Marines.   We had lots of questions!

We were even able to visit Hunter's dad, Mr. Guiswite!  He taught us about mre (meals ready to eat).  We saw many examples, learned how they are heated up, and were even able to try some meatballs.  Such a great experience! 

Brianna's dad, Mr. Eyer, came in to teach us about military vehicles.  How wonderful to see this type of transportation first hand!

I was able to snap a few pictures while helmets were being passed around.

We even braved the rain to get a closer look!

Mrs. Ashe gave the kids experience with  PT (physical training).  I only could take a few, as I participated too, hah!
