I use this every year on 9/11. This is a great way to incorporate the topic into all aspects of the classroom. It is age appropriate and leveled out.

We were able to use this resource for 9/11, veteran’s day and will use again for memorial day. We printed the pennants on cardstock and strung them into a garland. The classroom looks so festive! They could also work for 4th of July if we had school that month. I like the flag design option keeps it very versatile.
