What educators are saying
Description
Kick off your year with an introductory lesson about citizenship by discussing our Pledge of Allegiance. It's always surprising to see how many students recite the words but have little knowledge on the meaning behind them and why we, as Americans, say it each and every day.
This mini-lesson introduces new vocabulary and works through them in a variety of ways so that students can better understand the context of what the Pledge represents for our country.
Objectives covered:
- VA SOL: Civics 2.10
Students will be able to explain the responsibilities of a good citizen.
- TEKS Kindergarten: Social Studies 9.B
Recite the Pledge of Allegiance to the United States Flag and the Pledge to the Texas Flag
- TEKS First Grade: Social Studies 13.B, 13.E
Recite the Pledge of Allegiance to the United States Flag and the Pledge to the Texas Flag; and explain how patriotic customs and celebrations reflect American individualism and freedom.
