Establish a routine with today in history bell ringers

when my students walk into my classroom they immediately sit down and read the today in history fact I have projected. They are free to discuss the fact with their friends until I finish taking attendance and getting settled.

Then, we discuss the today in history fact as a class and I give more background information on the event if the students need it.

We discuss things like:

• The importance of the event
• Who was involved
• It’s impact on the world at the time
• The larger impact it had on history and society as a whole
