Calendar+Project+3

For this project, each third grade class will be working as a team to create a calendar for the fast approaching new year. Each of you will be able to select a month and then you will be researching some important and unusual holidays and events that happen in the month that you chose. Once you have a good list of events, we will use a publishing program to create and design a calendar page for your month. When we are all done, we will put all of the months together and present a complete calendar to your teacher for your class to use and enjoy during 2013. I hope you all work hard and have fun too!

Day 1: Research

Use the links below by clicking onto the month that you will be doing your project on. These links will take you directly to a website that lists loads of holidays and special events for you to pick and choose to put onto your own monthly calendar.



Day 2: Creating a Calendar

Now that our research is complete, our next step is to put all of our great findings into a calendar format. Click on the document below to open a calendar template. We will immediately save this document to our desktop folders. Then, we will add the events that we found last week into our calendar.
