American Symbols

When learning about the elections it is easy to weave in the topic of American Symbols. We reviewed the Pledge of Allegiance and talked about what it means. I found a lovely book at the library that explained the words just right.

After reading the book we did an activity labeling the parts of the flag.

  I then showed them the Parts of the Flag Nomenclature that can be found at The Helpful Garden .

                   
   We also learned about the inside of the White House doing an activity that was easy peasy.

Since they were all fired up and begging for more I reminded them of their White House Lego kit and challenged them to put it together.
