One page with 28 Veterans Day words in a grid, from Air Force, armistice and Army to uniform, veteran and victory. It includes all six branches of the military and words such as ceremony, memorial, salute and tribute. The direction asks children to read each word, then try to use it in a sentence.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 3rd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
