* Name the colors you see.
* Notice the patterns on the flag.
- red, white, red, white stripes.
- the stars are in a pattern too!
(when you look at the stars going up and down
they go 5 in one row, then 4 in the
next row.)
(when you look at the stars going side to side,
right to left they go 6 one row,
then 5 the next row.)
This pattern repeats!
* Count the stripes. Each stripes is for each state in the
13 original colonies.
*Count the stars. There is a star for each of the 50 states
in the United States.
