The Students will learn… What the American and Texas Flag looks like! The Pledge of Allegiance What voting is and what it is used for.

Unit Questions What does the American and Texas flags look like? Why are there stars and stripes? What is the Pledge of Allegiance? Why is it important to vote? Why do we need to know about our country?

Voting in any type of election, from local elections to Presidential primaries, provides an important way to voice your opinions regarding elected leaders and overall policies; voting also helps you decide your own future by electing a person who might reflect your own views. The ability to vote exists as one of the most cherished Constitutional Rights that many fought for, marched for, and died for over the centuries. (Smithstein)
