Pbs Learning Media: Brand New Flag Lesson Plan: Molly of Denali

Curated by ACT

This lesson, based on the 11-minute animated story "Brand New Flag" from the PBS KIDS series MOLLY OF DENALI, helps children use captions to access and convey meaning in informational texts. After Molly learns about the history of Alaska's state flag, she holds a contest to design a flag for the Trading Post. Entries come flooding in with captions to explain each design. Molly must decide which one truly captures the spirit of the Trading Post. After watching, students create informational text with captions in the context of a current unit that they are studying.
