Interactive Flag that inspired the National Anthem

This summer I was fortunate enough to visit Washington DC. While there, my family and I visited several museums including the museum of American History. One of the most interesting and moving exhibits was of the American Flag that inspired "The Star Spangled Banner". Here is a link to an interactive website of the flag.

Today our school held its annual Veteran's Day assembly. Perhaps your child would like to take a closer look at the flag Mr. Panther discussed.
