Veteran's Day

Our 4th graders put on the yearly Veteran's Program for the community. This year, they performed for the elementary building on Veteran's Day, as well as their nightly performance on November 12th for the community. I'm super proud of how it all turned out and I'm hearing great comments from teachers, parents, and local veterans just from the building performance. It's great for them to get another performance - I can't wait for tomorrow night to see the whole thing put together for the community! Here's my program for this year, as well as a video of our plate routine to "America, the Beautiful." I took the routine from Sardis Enrichment Academy's performance...it was taped by a parent and put on YouTube. Just beautiful!

  1. I loved the paper plate routine and the music was beautiful! I was wondering if you could share the name of the Cd that the music came from (or iTunes piece) I would really like to use it in my class!

    1. Hi Lisa! Thanks for commenting - everyone still mentions this performance from last year. It was a hit with everyone. I used our "Spotlight on Music" books for this recording. It is in the purple book (4th grade) I believe? Do you have these books at all? Feel free to contact me at msmusic4life88@gmail.com

  2. Thank a Vet was a staple when I had a Veterans' Day program! I taught the whole school the song and projected the lyrics with photos of student and staff family members who were veterans. Families were in tears every year.
