American Holidays Wordsearch including follow-up
This starts as a simple word search for American holidays, but the students are also asked to identify dates for fixed holidays, "bank" holidays, days with feasts and holidays with a religious origin. Includes ideas for other categories if you want to take it further or fit it to your own lesson on holidays.
Note: I only used holidays which are either secular or have been generally adopted into secular life. Unfortunately, this excludes all non-Christian holidays with the exception of Halloween. This is meant to help students remember holidays that either cause businesses to shut down or will be celebrated by most of the population.
Created with the Word Search Template uploaded by Sonn.
UPDATED: I added in Columbus Day since it is both a bank holiday and uniquely American. All info updated.
