Memorial Day True or False

Students test their knowledge of Memorial Day facts by reading ten statements and marking each as true or false. The statements cover the holiday’s history, traditions, and origins, such as its first name (Decoration Day) and the year it became a national holiday. This worksheet strengthens factual recall and critical evaluation of information. It also reinforces social studies knowledge through literacy-based questioning, helping students distinguish between historical truth and common misconceptions.
