Remembering those who served

At McDonald Elementary we remember the many men and women who fought, served, and sacrificed their lives for our freedom! We are so thankful for their sacrifices!

Below are pictures from the 93rd Dearborn Annual Memorial Day Parade!

We remember those who served by singing “This Is My Country” in class this week.

 

Memorial day was also Mrs. Duncanson and Ahmed’s Birthday!! 🙂

Peace & Love,

Mrs. Duncanson

March is Music in Our Schools Month!

We have had several special music events this month at McDonald School. Below are some pictures of what music looks like at McDonald Elementary.

Future teachers from Michigan State University came to work and play with us at McDonald:

4th Grade heard a special story told by Lisa Meyer, and played by violinist Linda Tolias a Dearborn School Graduate!

2nd and 3rd Grade composed star melodies using high and low pitches while creating movement and playing instruments to the “Star Light” Poem:

 

YAY for Music in OUR SCHOOL!
