Flag Day Letters

By: Melissa Winfield

Brief Description: In this literature response activity, my students and I read the book F is for
flag. We also reviewed the interactive flag on:
http://americanhistory.si.edu/starspangledbanner/interactive-flag.aspx
After having read and reviewed the information, students then wrote a letter to the president
telling one fact that they learned about the flag. They also colored their own flags and decorated
the strips with red glitter. This activity incorporates a variety of skills (reading informational and
literature texts, friendly letter writing, and social studies skills, math skills-counting the stars and
stripes) that stretch across content areas for young learners.
