Thank you to John Lough, my dad and Veteran, and my mom Peggy for coming and sharing about their experience in Air Force during the Vietnam war era.
They shared and answered questions about being stationed in Germany and Texas.
They also shared what the symbols on the uniform represent.
Finally, we shared about Flanders Field and The Poppy Lady that did so much to support service men. We gave each student a poppy in hopes they will never forget our veterans. Again, thank you Veterans.
Thank you to all who have served in the Armed Forces! 3rd Grade has a few special Veterans of their own to celebrate. Luci Magana (Army) she does so much for our class and we appreciate her. Brody and his grandpa Jules Hoschouer (Army), Aiden and his grandpa Ken Peterson (Navy), and Kamdyn and her great grandpa Don Kizer (Air Force). One of our vocabulary words for our unit is posterity, something each of these individuals and many others thought of when they chose to serve our country. Thank you is a small thing for the price they paid.
Thank YOU Military Veterans!
LAND of The FREE Because of the BRAVE!

Third Grade had the honor of having Veterans Jules Hoschouer and Phil Mollendor come in to teach us about folding the American Flag. Students not only learned how to properly fold the flag, they also learned the meaning of each fold as well as what the stars and strips stand for.
Juniors in American History re-enacted WWW II battles using play dough. Students taught the class about specific battles in the Pacific Ocean using their play dough figurines.
Good Luck Cougars!
Kindergarten practiced letter writing in shaving cream today. They have worked so hard to make it through all of the letters and got to celebrate their success. They loved taking a different approach today!!

Our reading module for a few weeks is Let Freedom Ring”. This past week students were learning about historic places, documents, and symbols that represent our nation. Students worked diligently on painting an American Flag pairing perfectly with Veterans Day coming up
Practice makes progress…unless you’re in 3rd grade then you have messy practice which makes better progress! Students were practicing their 3-letter blend spelling words with shaving cream.
