We are learning the importance of respect and gratitude towards others and our country. We are also discussing ways to sing with expression to create a certain feeling during our Veteran's day music.
This week we read "The Wall" by Eve Bunting. This story is about a young boy and his father going to Washington, D.C. to view the monument wall for Veterans killed or who went M.I.A. during Vietnam War. This story shows not only the feeling in this family but others who may have been affected. (An elderly couple, a young boy and his grandfather, an injured soldier, and a group of school girls learning about the wall and its meaning.)
