"What happened today?"

Now that I've been using the latest edition of the Teacher's Calendar for a few weeks, I can say for certain that it's done what I hoped: built an appreciation among my "Social Studies is boring" 3rd graders for historical events. If I forget to read them the highlights for a day in history during the usual time in the morning, at least one of them will ask, "What happened today?" I highly recommend this book to fellow educators who are looking for a sure way to build more interest in history among their students.

Should be available to all teachers!

This book covers the gamet for holidays and dates to be remember or celebrated. An excellent resource for student participation in current and historic events.

Great for morning announcements!

I am the principal of a small Catholic school, and I use the information in this book to write the morning announcements. The kids love to hear a little piece of history, or a snippet of trivia, or important holidays in foreign countries. It has inspired some off the wall celebrations, such as Hoodie Hoo Day which I celebrated with my 8th graders when I taught.
