U. S. Flag Day Homeschool Resources for Preschool to High School
Use Flag Day as an opportunity to teach your students about the history of the American flag with these free U.S. Flag Day homeschool resources.
The U.S. Flag Day is celebrated on June 14 each year. It is not a federal holiday, therefore government offices and banks are still open. This holiday celebrates the day in 1777 when the Second Continental Congress officially adopted the American Flag as a symbol of the nation.
These U.S. Flag Day homeschool resources will help you and your students learn more about this little-known holiday through printables, multi-subject lessons, activities, crafts, and book recommendations.
