Veteran's Day Sing-Along

On November 11th, we celebrate Veteran's Day. At Franklin School, our 5th grade Ambassadors organize an assembly to honor this holiday and thank local veterans. As part of this assembly, our students will participate in a school-wide sing-along of several patriotic songs. Several students expressed an interest in being able to practice these songs at home, so I am linking the Powerpoint presentation we will be singing along with at the assembly below. We will be singing:

         -The Star-Spangled Banner
         -Yankee Doodle   
         -There are Many Flags
         -This Land is Your Land
         -You're a Grand Old Flag

Use this slideshow to practice to lyrics to these patriotic songs.

The website for the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences has some great background information on these songs! Check it out here.
