Help children better understand our Pledge of Allegiance!
Developed at the request of elementary school teachers, Our Pledge, Our Promise: The Pledge of Allegiance Explained helps describe and explain each line of the Pledge of Allegiance with short, lyrical verses and bright, expressive pictures. Children will better understand the profound meanings behind all those "big" words they say at the start of their school day.
Go beyond rote memorization of our nation's pledge:
- Promote confidence through meaningful learning
- Master advanced vocabulary
- Instill the importance of unity and equality
This book will spark deeper discussions about the founding of the United States of America, our country's history, loyalty, voting, representation, freedom, empathy, and what patriotism means today. "Fun Facts" about the history of the flag and the pledge are also included to enhance learning. The proper way to fold the American flag is shown in an easy-to-follow diagram, too! A great book to use in patriotic celebrations, including Flag Day, the 4th of July, Veterans Day, Memorial Day, Presidents Day, Election Day, and more! Also, it's a must-have for young elementary school students and pre-K and kindergarten classrooms, especially at back-to-school time to start the new school year out right!
Parents, teachers, veterans, and patriots all agree that "Our Pledge, Our Promise: The Pledge of Allegiance Explained" is a great resource for educating the leaders of tomorrow.
