March 10: National Landline

Telephone Day

Alexander Graham Bell [ [link removed] ]

Can you imagine your daily routine without a cell phone? No Internet access at your disposal to get an Uber, order food, etc. Let?s take a step back in time and celebrate National Landline Telephone Day with our activity, The History of the Telephone [ [link removed] ]. This activity introduces students to Alexander Graham Bell and shows the impact of his invention ? the telephone ? on the U.S. population and how phones have changed since first introduced in 1876. For added fun, encourage students to make a list of people they know who still only use landline telephones.
