On March 22, 1915, the 48th General Assembly set aside the third Wednesday in October each year as Missouri Day. Missouri Day is a time for schools to honor the state and for the people of the state to celebrate the achievements of all Missourians.
We made a colossal cookie cake to celebrate. All of the regions of Missouri were labeled on the cookie. The blue area was the Glacial Plains. Did you know, long ago, this land was flattened by a glacier? The yellow portion was the Osage Plains, the red section was the Ozark Highlands, and the green part was the Mississippi Lowlands.
We had a sweet time learning about our great state today!
