The First Grade Sweet Life explains some great academic activities for President's Day. I really like the log cabin compound word sort game.

It's A Boy's Life has a post full of government related links and games that would apply to President's Day.
Swamp Frog First Graders has created a Venn Diagram for use in studying the presidents.
Chalk Talk: A Kindergarten Blog has several fun President's Day activities including 3 corner hats and a coin toss to practice probability and recording.
Jolanthe from Homeschool Creations put together President's Day lapbooks for the holiday.

Sarah, from Sarah's First Grade Snippets has put together a fantastic thematic unit about Presidents.

The US President Website is a valuable resource while planning for your instruction.
So, I JUST discovered ABC and 123. It is AMAZING. I'm sure you have already received the Stylish Blogger award over a bazillion times, but I wanted to give it to you one more time.
