National Day of Service and Remembrance
Our 4/5 classroom talked in depth about what The National Day of Service and Remembrance represents. We focused quite a bit of time on the events of 9/11 and talked about heroes that are in our own lives. We listened to the book September Roses, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJnXNyOuRZ4 and the students made roses for someone in their life they see as a hero to them. It was a really strong activity. In fact, I have had students email me about it and have seen two posts of the roses on Facebook. :) The class had showed such creativity when designing and making the rose but the message to our heroes was all the same
