Jonathan Law’s Dean of Students Mr. Ragaini and history teacher Mr. Zuraw helped to put together an Advisory activity for Veterans Day on November 11.

Since veterans could not come to to Law this year, students were given a virtual lesson about Veterans Day. Students completed a choice board that included links to podcasts and videos about Veterans Day, links to virtual field trips, information on PTSD awareness, and links to explore Veterans Day through a historical lens. 

Students used Padlet, Kami, Google Earth, and other apps to share their feelings with classmates. Special messages about Veterans Day from Law student Johnny Vaccino and Milford’s Poet Laureate, Joann Glass, were also included for students to explore.

Ragiani said the activity was a success.

“I usually judge the advisory activities by the feedback I get from teachers and students,” Ragaini said. “Students shared thoughtful and genuine reflections with me from the choice board options.”

Zuraw was impressed by the student responses he saw from the choice board.

“I think the students really took the time to reflect on what Veterans Day means to them and put a lot of thought and effort into their creations,” Zuraw said.
