Happy Veteran's Day!

Today we celebrated Veteran's Day! Our school hosted a Veteran's Day assembly to honor those who have served in our military! Many students invited a veteran guest! Thank you for coming and thank you for your service!






We also did a reading activity to learn about the history of Veteran's Day! Students worked in pairs to construct a timeline of events!

Field Trip!

On Friday, we visited The Missouri Botanical Garden! After studying plants in science, students were very excited about this trip! We got to tour the garden with a tour guide to learn about many neat plants. We also got to play in the Children's Garden!



We could touch some of the plants! When we gently rubbed the leaf of a lavender or mint plant, you could smell the fragrance on your fingers!

Students really liked this plant called Elephant's Ears.



This tree will protect its seeds this fall and winter by giving them a fuzzy coat to wear!

We were able to pick up and look closely at many different seeds that are falling this time of year!





Thank you parent volunteers for helping us have such a wonderful field trip!
