Instill respect and appreciation for veterans with these Veterans Day & Remembrance Day reading comprehension activities! With this NO-PREP lesson, you’ll take your students on a journey into understanding and appreciating the true sacrifices made by veterans
Note: while this resource focuses on the American holiday (Veterans Day), it also includes a section about the history of Remembrance Day/Armistice Day/Poppy Day in countries like the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
I recommend using this resource with Secondary School students. These activities are also suitable for ESL/ELL students whose level of English is Intermediate (B1-B2) or Advanced (C1-C2).
PRINT AND DIGITAL VERSIONS OF THE ACTIVITIES ARE INCLUDED.
