iPaddling through Fourth Grade-Encourage...Engage...Enlighten...Empower: Fourth Graders Thank Our Veterans

Happy Veteran's Day - November 11th, 2014

On November 11th, Veteran's Day is celebrated throughout our country. It is a day to honor and recognize the men and women who have served in the Armed Forces. Living in Bellevue, Nebraska by Offutt Air Force Base many of the families in our community are currently serving or have served in the military.

In honor of Veterans Day, my fourth graders wanted to thank our Veterans on this special day. Many of my students been affected personally by having family members in the Armed Forces.

Each student came up with a creative way to share their
