The Story of Historical Markers

Whether your road trips are across town or across the country, you have seen historical markers along the roadside. In this History Heights eBook, The Story of Historical Markers, we'll learn about the history of the historical markers! We'll see how the wording on the markers has changed through the years, and discover the challenges facing historians when creating a marker. Activities include creating a journal of the markers you find and designing your own historical marker following the guidelines required by many marker sponsors. Even if your travel is mostly of the arm-chair variety (like mine!) you'll enjoy this look into historical markers.

As with all History Heights eBooks, The Story of Historical Markers is in PDF format and works with any PDF-compatible device. Minimum reading skills of late elementary are best for solo reading, but all ages will enjoy this as a read-aloud story.
