Hello 7th graders:
Today we are going to work on a fun project to reproduce one European flag!
Remember that this is your assignment:
1) Draw/cut out/paint/somehow recreate the flag of a European country of your choice, faithfully reproducing it (be sure to pay attention to the dimensions of the flag!!)
2) Write a short (5+ sentence) history of the flag. Include things like the year the flag was adopted (started to be used by the country), why the colors or designs on the flag were chosen, what other flags influenced the flag for your country, etc.
Here are some websites you can use to do this project.
http://flagspot.net/flags/eu-eun.html A good website! Scroll down until you see the name of the country you are researching, then click on the link to get information about their flag!
http://www.world-free-printable-flags.com/flags-history.html Again, scroll down until you see the name of the country you are researching, then click on the link to get information about their flag! If you click on the Flag Coloring link there are some printable/colorable versions of your flags for those hard-to-draw elements!
http://www.worldflags101.com/ Another great website with a TON of information!
You may also do a web search for "History of (Country Name) Flag"
Have fun!
