Teaching Tip
Materials:
Have either the physical flag or large printouts in color of the following flags: US, local state/province, AY, Pathfinder, Christian
Procedure:
Have one participant for each flag and hold up their flag when it's their turn. Have each participant describe out loud what they see on the flag and what it looks like. Encourage them to point to what they are verbally describing. They can also mention what each color and/or symbol represents, if they know or remember.
