Conclusion

Mike has learned so much about America and hopefully you did, too! You did a great job helping him. Let's talk about what we learned.

* We learned that each color of the flag stands for something and that there are 50 stars and 13 stripes.

* We learned what the Pledge of Allegiance means.

* We learned why the Statue of Liberty and the bald eagle are important.

* We learned about the Washington Monument.

 

We learned a lot, but there is still more to learn! If you want to learn more about America and her symbols, look at these websites:
