Celebrating Memorial Day is a lesson to help youngsters understand the true meaning
of the holiday and the men and women it honors. Replete with resources, a Memorial Day Internet Treasure
Hunt, and independent, whole-class, and small group activities, Celebrating Memorial Day offers
the opportunity to comprehend and salute this important American holiday which was first officially
recognized in 1868 as Decoration Day. (See the language of General Order 11 signed by General John A. Logan,
Commander-in-Chief, Grand Army of the Republic at )
Rating: Excellent resources for pre- or post-holiday information and discussion.
