Veterans' Day is Nov. 11. How will you honor our veterans?
The history of this special day seems like a great place to start. However, a dry recitation of the facts is uninspiring. Condense it with poetry!
This poem, and the Poetry Possibilities that accompany it, will provide a concise description of the day's origins.
Also found in this unit are poetry possibilities for pumpkins, Halloween, November, seasonal changes, Thanksgiving, and more! You can find this resource here:
Naturally, there are teaching possibilities to accompany these poems. They can also be found in the Fall Poetry Possibilities unit.
