For those who would like to have some cards that celebrate military veterans and also advocate for adult literacy education on these holidays, I have prepared these greeting cards based on the teaching of adult illiterates and non-English speaking men from World War II using Our War comic strips. During World War II, over a quarter million young men learned to read in Special Training Units in the Army. One of the resources used to teach reading was a newspaper, Our War, which was published monthly from June 1942 through September 1945. Each issue of Our War included a cartoon strip about Private Pete and his buddy, Daffy. The November 1944 issue of Our War discusses Thanksgiving and gives thanks that we are free and shall remain free. The December 1943 issue discusses Christmas. The January 1944 issue discusses the New Year celebration and the Four Freedoms from President Roosevelt?s famous speech. I have attached a Microsoft Word file using the foregoing cartoon strips. I have formatted the strips into card formats so you can print them out, trim them down to card size, and use them as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year cards that advocate for adult literacy education. The back of each of the four cards says: ?Support Adult Literacy Education!? plus a little identification information. You can format the cards to print on special paper for greeting cards or just on regular printing paper. In the past some adult educators have used making the cards as a class activity with adult learners. Adult educators and learners can use the cards to advocate for adult literacy education by sending them to Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion, Lion?s club, politician?s offices, and other places to stimulate thinking about adult literacy education. I hope you find the cards interesting and useful in your advocacy for literacy education this coming holiday season!
