A Month of FunDays: A Whole Year of Games and Learning Activities for Just About Every Holiday You've Ever Heard Of-And Many that You Haven't!

Students learn and enjoy themselves at the same time with the incredible variety of activities in A Month of Fundays. Celebrate traditional holidays like Thanksgiving and Presidents' Day, as well as unusual ones like Dog Appreciation Month and Sauerkraut Salad and Sandwich Season. Some of the holidays may be offbeat, but the activities are always challenging and interesting - never busy work. A few ideas:

On Most Boring Films of the Year Day, use "What a Yawn" to teach persuasive writing.

For Black History Month, use "Ten Times Ten" to explore contributions of blacks.

Try "Fact or Not?" on April Fool's Day for a look at critical thinking.

Activities are organized by month, but who's to say you can't celebrate National Asparagus Month in March instead of May?

Perfect as a supplemental tool in any classroom, grades 6-9. Most activities suitable for older students as well. 220 pages, 81/2" 11", reproducible, illustrated.
