October 12: Columbus Day

This coming Sunday is Columbus Day, or El Día de la Hispanidad -- which might make an interesting webquest (not something your students will thank you for, if you make them do it Sunday ,-)!

You'll find ideas for other "Days of the Year" here; and on TeachingEnglish.org.uk there are some neat ideas for how you could exploit the days of the week, etc, with kids, just about any day of the year.
