Veterans+Day+Skype

Third graders in Mrs. R's class had the opportunity to skype this afternoon with a Major from the United States Army. Thanks to a quick response to a tweet that Mrs. Finger sent out looking for a veteran to interview in honor of Veterans Day, this third grade class had a thirty five minute call with a wonderful woman who has been serving the last several years and who has helped to train the Iraqi police. The children had pre-drafted questions that they took turns asking, then they shared some of the ways that they have been honoring the veterans.

Here are some photos and a short video of this very memorable experience.
