Fill-In - October Event in History

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

A lot has happened in the month of October in the past 100 years or so. Kids fill in the blank for 31 events, each of which occurred on a day in October. Each event can be found in a New York Times article from the past 100+ years. Pupils use the 31 events, names, and dates at the bottom of the page to finish each headline. This is a really cool exercise. How many can you complete?
