Fun Fact of the Day

DID YOU KNOW?
If you are only allowed to stay outside with your friends until its dark out, ask your parents to move to Greenland! During the Arctic summer, the sun never sets!

Today’s Activity

For Today’s Totally Artistic Tuesday, we are going to draw the flag of Greenland! Greenland’s flag is simple and is also the same two colours as our Canadian flag. The meaning of Greenland’s flag is “the large white part in the flag symbolises the ice cap and our fjords are represented by the red part in the circle. The white part of the circle symbolises the ice bergs and the pack ice, and the large red part in the flag represents the ocean.”

Draw Greenland’s flag on one half of a piece of paper and on the other half draw the flag of your favorite country! If you click here you will be linked to a website all about flags of the world. The website shows you what the countries flag looks like and also information about the flag.

Teacher Note: You can get some string and hang all the pictures together around your classroom to show off the bright and beautiful drawings!
