Veteran's Day

Veterans Day

by Cheryl Dyson
On Veterans Day we honor all,
Who answered to a service call.
Soldiers young, and soldiers old,
Fought for freedom, brave and bold.
Some have lived, while others died,
And all of them deserve our pride.
We’re proud of all the soldiers who,
Kept thinking of red, white and blue.
They fought for us and all our rights,
They fought through many days and nights.
And though we may not know each name,
We thank ALL veterans just the same.

This week we have been learning about our nations heroes, veterans.  We are learning about the different branches of the armed forces and the reason behind Veteran's Day.  Also, we learned how to write a friendly letter so that we could send a veteran a thank you letter.  If the student knows a veteran I encouraged them to take them home and mail them to that person.  Please help your child by sending these letters to the veterans they wrote to.  
Thinking and working on our letters
