What children learn in Level 53
- Communities celebrate together, with parades, festivals, and fairs.
- A parade is people marching down a street to celebrate, with marching bands and floats.
- Many towns have fireworks on Independence Day, and parades on Veterans Day and Thanksgiving.
- Georgia has famous celebrations too, like the giant St. Patrick's Day parade in Savannah, and the Georgia National Fair in Perry.
- Celebrations are alike and different. Many have food, music, and family. Good citizens help by being kind and throwing away trash.
- Try it with a grown-up! Find a parade or festival in your community.
