Happy Sunday! More than likely your cell phone clock already updated its time for you, but this is a reminder to change the clocks around your house and in the car. This is a great time to explain Daylight Savings Time to your student.
Here's some history, taken from the article linked below:
Daylight saving time was officially enacted in the U.S. in 1966. But the country first tried it in 1918, during World War I. It was a way to save energy. “It also allowed people to do things for the war effort after they got home from work, like plant gardens,” historian David S. Prerau told TIME for Kids. That extra hour still has benefits, he says. “It saves energy. It gets people outdoors. And it’s good for public health.”
