Patriotic Symbol Match

This matching worksheet helps students identify and interpret common patriotic symbols associated with Memorial Day and U.S. history. Learners read a list of symbolic meanings, such as “represents peace and hope” or “honors soldiers who died in service,” and match them with corresponding items like the American Flag, Bald Eagle, or Red Poppy. Through this exercise, students build knowledge of national symbols and their significance, enhancing vocabulary and symbolic reasoning. It reinforces the connection between visual symbols and national values like freedom, unity, and sacrifice.
