It was Yankee Doodle Day for the fourth grade students today at Pine St. As usual, the parents who stepped up to plan, prepare and then run the day did a wonderful job. Garrett couldn't resist playing dead for the camera so I was able to take a quick shot with the camera on my phone. Thankfully, the weather cooperated as the second half of the day's events were on the playground and by about 2pm I'd guess it was in the low 60s. The morning sessions were indoors and I understand they covered such things as the Boston Tea Party and Ben Franklin along with crafts that included a feather pen and drum complete with pencils for drumsticks.
