The Teacher's Calendar cover

A source of creative lessons and activities, The Teacher’s Calendar is a day-by-day compendium of historical events, notable birthdays, and offbeat holidays. September 5, for example, is Be Late For Something Day, sponsored by the Procrastinator’s Club of America. Also on that date: the anniversary of the first Continental Congress, the Voyager 1 shuttle launch, and the birth of legendary bandit Jesse James.
