SimpleEnglishNews.com

My students love listening to Sam Margolis' Simple English News, a website that publishes very short news stories about current events. The news stories also include short audio clips that are less minute.

Here is a selection of Simple English News stories keyed to the new USCIS 100:100: Name two national U.S. holidays.

New Year’s Day
Martin Luther King, Jr., Day
Presidents’ Day
Memorial Day
Independence Day
Labor Day
Columbus Day (Columbus' family may be from Ibiza)
Veterans Day
Thanksgiving
Christmas
