The Flag of the United States of America printable pages

It's very rare that I do specifically educational printable pages. Most of my printables are meant for a wide range of ages.

This one is educational, and my terms of use are the same as usual. Yes, it's okay to use my printables with your scouting troops, classrooms, and other groups.

The first one is available in both large PNG format (not transparent, sorry!) and jpg format. The second one is only available in large PNG format because of the size of the fonts used.

The flag was drawn to exacting specifications to be as proportionally accurate as possible. The pages below are lined for text.

This one needs to be printed in landscape format. The flag is marked on every star in order of statehood with the abbreviation for the state name and the year it became a state. The text on the stripes lists the 13 colonies and the exact day they became states. Large PNG format.

Words and online photo fun

I decided to start posting a "Word of the Moment" on Don't Eat the Paste Quotes at FB. Words are fun!
Here are the first 2 as an example.

I found a couple online photo apps that you might find fun. Both sites are free to use and you can upload your own photos to them. Here's the photo I used.It's one I took a few weeks ago on a cloudy night.

Pixlr-o-matic has a bunch of photo effects, upload a picture or use a webcam. You can add color effects, then light and texture effects, then end with a frame/mask effect. Here are some examples.Click on the images to see the effects better.

Picture to People has a bunch of filter effects to create the appearance of pencil drawings, vexels, cartoons and other things. Click on the images to see the effects better. My favorite are the Realistic Pencil Sketch and the Mosaic effects.

That site also has some great text effects, a maximum allowable of 25 letters, but it will save in transparent PNG format which is nice for digital scrapbooking. Click on the image below to see the fun coffee detail.
