Americans see the flag and say the Pledge of Allegiance almost everyday but what do they mean? 

We'll spend the first part of class discussing the U.S. flag and it's symbolism, going through a brief history of it, and covering some basic etiquette rules when handling it. During the second part of the session we will breakdown the Pledge of Allegiance and discuss each part's meaning. 

We will say the Pledge as we break it down but won't spend time specifically learning it. We will define any unknown words in the Pledge.
