Remembrance Day in the Classroom: A Teacher Resource Kit


This toolkit has been created to help educate students about Remembrance Day. It introduces students to the importance of remembrance and provides guidance in planning a Remembrance Day event, whether in class or virtually. The central piece of the event is the participation of a Memory Project speaker. This toolkit encourages students and the public to reflect on what remembrance means to them, the history behind November 11, and the legacies of past wars and conflicts. It also provides educators with the opportunity to present oral history as a primary source and to incorporate firsthand accounts of these events.
