Free Memorial Day Lesson Plans, Coloring Pages, Crafts, Activities

Memorial Day is a holiday rich in social and historical significance. All too often we educators lack the time to include a study of this holiday in our lesson plans. With the internet we have at our disposal, a wealth of resources for sharing information. Generous teachers have shared their time and talent, by providing simple, reproducible lessons for Memorial Day and other often overlooked holidays. These lessons cover a variety of content areas. I've tried to cull the very best of the web to bring you a list of resources that are free, easy to use and safe to print or explore. I could splash a bunch of teacher websites about, but most of us are already either familiar with these sources or could pull them up with a simple google search.Free Memorial Day Lesson Plans: Hands-On Cross-Curricular Lessons for Upper Elementary
