Our class took a walking field trip today to the St. Albans Green. The entire school walked to the park and watched as the parade went down Main Street. There were many veterans who participated and were accompanied by firetrucks, a marching band, baton artists, and floats. The students waved flags and said thank you as the armed service members went by. It was a wonderful learning experience on freedom and at what price it comes to us as Americans. The service they provide for our freedom was discussed before and after in the classroom and the students were able to draw a picture on our return to school with a sentence describing what they saw and felt today.
