Fourth of July-US Independence Day

Today is the fourth of July, the day Americans celebrate their National Day.

I´ve received this powerpoint presentation in my mail today about US Independence Day. I think it could be quite interesting to have a look as part of a country related to the language we study.

Independence Day, commonly known as July 4th or the Fourth of July, commemorates the Continental Congress’ adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The document, primarily written by Thomas Jefferson, served as a formal announcement that the 13 American colonies were no longer part of the British Empire and would henceforth be free and independent states. Regarded as the birthday of the United States of America, the day is typically celebrated with parades, fireworks, ceremonies, barbecues and family gatherings.
