Students traditionally recite the pledge while standing, facing the American flag, with their right hand over their heart.

The final worksheet includes the complete Pledge of Allegiance words, making it a handy classroom or homeschool poster:

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

Understanding the Pledge of Allegiance

The Pledge of Allegiance has been part of American classrooms for more than a century, but many students don’t know why it was written or what its words mean.

Here are a few interesting facts to discuss alongside the printable:

• The original pledge was written in 1892 for a national school celebration.
• The words “under God” were added in 1954.
• The pledge encourages ideas of unity, liberty, justice, and loyalty.
• Today, students may choose whether or not to recite the pledge, a right protected by the Supreme Court.

These discussion points can help older elementary students better understand the history and meaning behind the words they’re reading and coloring.
