Every day is special for someone.
It may be somebody's birthday, anniversary, or wedding day. In fact, each year a special calendar comes out listing special days like the birthday of the light bulb or the day to celebrate pickles. In this lesson students use the Internet to research what's happening today and what happened on this date in history. Learning Goals Understand that historical events are remembered by the dates on which they occurred and that date is celebrated every year. Explore what's happening in the world today and what happened on this date in the past.
