Veteran's Day

Veteran's Day is the perfect opportunity to teach our kids about the sacfirfices that military men and women have made for generations in order to fight for our freedom and protect our country.
 
 
This Veteran's Day in our classroom, we will be remembering those who were willing to make sacrificies for our country, and honoring them by writing thank you letters to veterans that will be delivered to our local VFW. 

Here are some resources that I highly suggest using with your class when learning about this special holiday:

Wonderful text and vibrant pictures!

This book is excellent for teaching early learners the holiday basics.
 
 
 
Happy Veteran's Day!  I hope you and your students enjoy learning about and honoring our veteran's on this important day
