Lesson Plans - July

Patriotic Symbols

Students recognize national and state symbols and icons such as the national and state flags, the bald eagle, and the Statue of Liberty.

PATRIOTIC PROGRAM

The play reflects the new patriotism which has swept our country and some new songs and skits have been added.

Independence Day!

While this activity is just pretend, it was the same problem the original 13 colonies faced when they decided to separate from England way back in 1776 (That’s over 200 years ago!). How did the colonies show everyone that they were no longer part of England? What did they do to make themselves feel American?

Hooray for Independence!

Why do countries celebrate their independence days with fireworks? Why do people hang national flags on patriotic holidays? Celebrate with a colorful wall hanging!

Paper Plate Uncle Sam

Kids can create a patriotic pal for the Fourth of July! This fun project is great for little ones who will love putting on the oh-so-soft beard made of cotton balls.
