July
Every fourth of July we celebrate the birth of our country and those that have fought for our freedom. What better way to recognize the month than with a patriotic hand print flag and poem!
Supplies You'll Need
- Red, white, and blue kids craft paint
- Blue construction paper
- Mini silver craft stars
How To Make A Hand Print Flag
Help your students paint a blue square on their palm and their four fingers with alternating red and white craft paint.
Invite them to press their hand firmly to the piece of blue construction paper - fingers pointed to the side of the paper.
When the paint has dried, have students embellish the blue part of the flag with mini craft stars.
The Poem
A Flag For Me and You
- Red, white, and blue,
- Red, white, and blue,
- A flag for me,
- A flag for you.
- It is the flag of our great nation,
- It's honored by each generation.
- Join me now in celebration,
- Red, white, and blue.
Add the poem to the blue construction paper and have your students add it to their calendar artwork!
