Veteran's Day








No School Wednesday November 11th.
We talked a little in class about how Veteran's Day was named (orig. Armistice Day) when WWI ended on the eleventh hour, eleventh day of the eleventh month. Although these were mostly from WWII, I showed them a few pictures from when I was in France last November and saw the American Cemetery. We talked about the day not to necessarily be sad, but as a day to think of the hero's who served/ is serving our country. Here are the photos.
