Imagine you are walking along a road, and you see a sign with words on it. That sign is a historical marker! It is like when you write your name on a piece of paper so that you can remember it later.
But these markers are not just any signs, they are special because they tell you about important things that happened a long time ago. They might tell you about a famous person who used to live in that area or about a big event that took place in history.
It's like a special message from the past telling you about how things used to be. And when we read them, we can learn about what happened in the past and why it's important.
So, when you see a historical marker, take some time to read it, and you might learn something new and interesting about your community!
