Shadow box

This is a shadow box that Ms. McAvoy's Dad built for items that were donated by a student's father from last year. He was deployed to Afghanistan for most of the year last year. Our class visited with him before he left and while he was gone, our class made cards for him and donated items to make a care package for him with all of his favorite things. We also made a special "thank you" video for him (you can find this video on our blog under the tab for February titled "thank you video").

When he came back in April, he returned to the class and gave us some special mementos from his journey. This shadow box will always remain in our class and serve as a special reminder to appreciate the people who fight and make sacrifices for our freedom.
