We had a very educational day! We began the festivities by watching the Presidential Inauguration. It was history in the making and the kiddos were able to be a part of it. We watched President Trump and Vice President Pence get sworn in. We heard President Trump give his inaugural speech. We even watched the President and Vice President escort the former President and former Vice President to their departing transportations. We learned about MLK, Jr. and his speeches this week. It was great for the kiddos to hear a speech, live, to make connections with.
We also had visitors from the Guntersville State Park. The students learned about a Barred Owl, a Great-Horned Owl, a Red-Tailed Hawk, and a Bald Eagle. The Bald Eagle was a young eagle (around 3 years old) and had yet to get her white tail feathers and white head feathers.
It was so fitting to learn about and see our national bird in person on the nation's inauguration day! An American symbol to honor democracy in action!
