Happy Veteran's Day

Veteran's Day will be here soon! How are you going to address it in your classroom?

Instilling a sense of patriotism in your students is very fulfilling. Here are some great ways to embed some patriotic facts into your lessons.

- Focus on The Pledge of Allegiance
  * They know the words, but do they know what they mean?
- Focus on Our Flag
 * Why does it have 13 stripes and 50 stars?
-What is the history of our Nation?
 *Share some information about our first president and our freedom from Great Britain.
 * Use this topic as a jumping point for the history of Thanksgiving.
