The 2008 Veterans Day teacher resource guide is now online.
Parents and educators can download the guide as a PDF file from the VA Web site: http://www.va.gov/opa/vetsday/index.asp.
The guide includes: suggested activities for Veterans Day (such as a school assembly, musical performance, or flag-raising ceremony); information on how to contact veterans service organizations and staff at VA medical centers, benefits offices, and National Cemeteries; information for older students including handouts on the origins of Veterans Day, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, statistics on America’s wars, and scholarships; and subjects for younger students such as a Veterans Day maze and coloring pages.
The guide, along with a Veterans Day poster, is being distributed on CD-ROM to principals at 118,000 schools nationwide. America’s veterans have shaped our history. Share their example of courage and sacrifice with future generations.
