What happened in history on this day? And what about the rest of the week?

I’ve just updated ActiveHistory’s Historical Anniversaries feature.

You can now switch between:

? Today — see a selection of historical events, births and deaths from today’s date.

?? Whole Week — explore historical anniversaries for the next seven days, all on one page.

It’s a simple change, but it makes the feature much more useful for lesson planning, starter activities, quizzes and finding interesting historical events to discuss with students.

And if you want to investigate a particular date, you can still use the Birthday Timeline to explore the history of any day of the year.
