U.S. Symbols in Brief

Here are 21 passages on American Symbols for sharing with students. Written to give brief information, not full lessons; these passages can be just the thing for distributive practice or to set up further research or lessons.

There is a picture or photograph for each page to engage students, while a student/s or the teacher shares the passages. Use them to: enhance Morning Meetings, introduce a social studies lesson, pull out for review, practice oral reading of non-fiction texts, read in small groups and then debate/discuss which one is more important, select two to compare and contrast as a writing prompt or Venn Diagram, use to stimulate discussions, review, or discuss content vocabulary for ESL students. I’m sure you will come up with more ideas; and I’d love to hear about them.

The text in the Preamble to the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence passage, that might be required in some curriculum, are included on the appropriate slides.

Here are the symbols covered:

⭐ American Flag

⭐ The Pledge of Allegiance

⭐ The National Anthem

⭐ USA

⭐ The President

⭐ The White House

⭐ The Supreme Court House

⭐ The US Capitol Building

⭐ Air Force One

⭐ Lincoln Memorial
