👉 Memory; recollection.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look today, At a word that carries meaning, in a thoughtful way. The dictionary tells us, “Memory and recollection,” true, But "memorial" has a deeper hue. Think of it like this: A memorial isn't just a thought, It’s a place or thing where memories are brought. It’s a way to honor someone gone, you see, A tribute to their life, for you and me. Like a statue standing tall, a plaque so bright, Or a garden blooming with beautiful light. These things remind us of those we hold dear, And keep their stories alive, year after year. So "memorial" means remembrance, clear and bold, A lasting tribute, a story to be told! Does that make sense? Any questions so far?
