You know today is Flag Day? When we're all supposed to fly the American flag somewhere.  We have every right to be proud of our nation, our flag and our culture. So raise the flag today with pride! 
 what if we made a flag that represents our self. What would it be? Would you add glitter, embellishments or other rickrack?  Make quick sketches of a
 flag that represents  just you without thinking about perfection. 
Did you know? If you like to study flags, then you are a Vexillologist. Here is something to add to your Vexillologist library…

The Ethiopian flag was adopted around 1800. The flag of Ethiopian is divided into three horizontal stripes of equal size: Green, Yellow and Red. 


The colored stripes on the Ethiopian flag are significant – 
The Green stripe on the top represents the land and hope.  The Yellow stripe in the middle of the Ethiopian flag represents the church, peace, natural wealth and love; and the Red stripe on the bottom represents power, faith and blood.
