Veterans Day - Activities to Honor Veterans While Teaching Technology Skills in Elementary School



During the first quarter of this school year we get many opportunities to explore our patriotism celebrated Constitution Day in September, exploring the election process in early November, followed quickly by observing the Day veterana.Svijet rejoiced at the end of World War II and 1938 federal holidays "armistice Day" was created. In 1954 holiday was renamed to "Veterans Day" so that all Veterans could be honored. What types of activities we can do to help children appreciate the Veterans that have served? My goal is twofold: one, in honor of veterans, and two, to build some technology skills into the process. Some ideas for using technology to honor the veterans are:

  • Visit Web site for kids created by veterans organizations.
  • Writing letters, poems, and create cards for the Veterans and distribute at local Veteran hospitals and homes. These cards can be made in KidPix or any other drawing program. This could include the flag with a note written in the stripes, or word processed letters with clip art, or computerized drawings of the people of the armed forces (especially well for kindergarten, first and second grade!)
  • Create a class book all images are created by the class, bind, and give local VA hospital or VA home.
  • Podcasting of recorded history, created a conversation defenders, either in school or outside school.
  • Podcast students about why we are grateful for the armed forces.
  • Bring Veterans to school and honor them through songs, skits, and stories from children.
  • Bring Veterans to school to share with students about the history and experience as part of the armed forces.

around the world today is marked whether it is called Veterans Day, Remembrance Day or Armistice dan.Ideja to renew our commitment to peace in our world svijetu.Djece should be taught and reminded that world peace is a goal worth achieving. In addition, our children need to take time to connect with adults, learn to listen, and appreciate what people who have served our country must learn all of us.
