So one of my resolutions for my classroom this upcoming year is to celebrate more! I had a calendar many years ago that included all the National Days-National Hot Dog Day, National Sea Turtle Day, Ansel Adams birthday, etc. I am making a calendar for myself this year and I am going to take a few minutes every day to celebrate something or someone.
I cannot figure out how to upload the actual files, however I do have the last 2 weeks of August and September to post here. If you are interested at all in a copy of this calendar-just e-mail me and I can send it to you. It was culled from a number of different sites.
So excited to celebrate this year!!!!

August 23rd-Ride Like the Wind Day
August 25-Earth was first photographed from the moon, Mt. Vesuvius erupted
August 26th-Dog Appreciation Day

I would love a copy of that, please. I used to use those days to spark writing and would love to start incorporating them in different ways again. Thanks for the time you spent researching!

Absolutely-I sent it-hope it helps! :)
DeleteI've done a bit of this the past two years, although I was just choosing one day a week to celebrate something. Usually as the year goes on, I get worse at it. :)
ReplyDeleteThat may be what happens to me too, but I'm going to start out with good intentions. :)
DeleteHi! Great idea! I always miss these! I would love to do the same. Would you mind sending it to me? Thanks for your time and help! Enjoy your summer and good luck next year!
