Character Traits of a Veteran Word Map
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Character Traits of a Veteran Word Map" is written for 3rd Grade (Ages 8-9). If your little one is a year younger but already steady on word practice, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and Veterans Day vocabulary never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade word practice, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with Veterans Day vocabulary. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
