OUR FLAG

The Star -Spangled Banner is our country's national anthem. The American Flag is our nation's symbol of freedom. When you see the golden arches you would think of McDonald's. When you see the American Flag, we should think of all the soldiers who fought in the battles and won, to create the free nation we have today.

Some places I see the American flag is in Lynn Thigpen classrooms on the wall.The American flag was there because when the students do the Pledge of Allegience,they have to look at the flag to be respectful to the people who died in the USA Army.Another place where I see an American flag is at Six Flags Great America.The flag is at Great America because the flag represents that the place is in America.
