Flag Worksheets

For young children, coloring is fun and it can be educational too. Use flag coloring pages to explain the flag information on the coloring page. Then provide a little information to make coloring fun, such as telling them that the biggest area on the flag is a certain color. Let them choose the right crayon then they can color that part of the flag coloring page. Provide more information about the flag so they can finish coloring the entire picture.

Some coloring pages or flag worksheets have letters that children can trace to practice writing letters of the alphabet. Be sure to use all of the learning opportunities on each worksheet.

School-age students will be able to handle more challenging flag worksheets. Make the lessons about history fun with some flag worksheets that can be incorporated in other lessons, such as using the Flag Day acrostic poem worksheet in Language Arts class.

Study the history of flags, and then let students sew their own flag.
