Flower Mound

Students were asked to write about an event in our community, share why they liked living here, and tell how our community is different from the community where their parents lived as a child. Each student created a brochure to persuade people to live in Flower Mound. Some of the crayon drawings are from our town pamphlets. All of these activities provided opportunities for the children to learn about our area and create interest in our community.

My mom's community
.the community I lived in when I was Heather's age was similar to Flower Mound.It was a small town called Plymouth in Michigan every year we had parades to celebrate holidays .Festivals for spcial events.And there was a lot of pride in the community . One thing that was different was the weather. We could not swim for 6 menths of the year like you can here . In the winter we built BIG snowmen, igloos, and ice skated on the street.On nice winter days we would walk to a park and sled down the hills.
