Today we were very excited! We helped celebrate the Junior League's 70th Birthday! We were so anxious. Today Mrs. Tosha and Mrs. Drew came to our room to read us a very special book called The Quiltmaker's Gift.
Mrs. Drew and Mrs. Tasha asked us what it means to volunteer. We told them that when we volunteer, we help others.
After reading The Quiltmaker's Gift, Mrs. Tasha and Mrs. Drew talked to us about what we learned from the story. Mrs. Tasha and Mrs. Drew taught us that it is better to give than to receive!
After Mrs. Tasha and Mrs. Drew read to us, Mrs. Suzanne came by to do an art project with us. Mrs. Suzanne reviewed The Quiltmaker's Gift with us.
Mrs. Suzanne gave each one of us a quilt square. We talked with Mrs. Suzanne about what we would draw on our quilt square. We decided that we would draw hands or hearts. The hands or hearts would represent the Junior League helping others!
Once all the quilt squares were done, the Junior League would take all the quilt squares to a quiltmaker to be put together. The quilts will be on display at the Junior League House!
We were so excited to be part of such a special day for the Junior League! Happy 70th Birthday to the Junior League! Thank you so much for everything! We had a great day!
