May 27 - Memorial Day
Memorial Day is typically celebrated with barbecues and outdoor family fun, but let's make sure to take a moment to remember and honor the sacrifices of our fallen military heroes. The National Moment of Remembrance encourages all Americans to pause wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation. We've put together this list of resources for your classroom:
