A Flag with 50 Stars

The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.

In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.

The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change his grade to an A.

A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.

Question 1
Part A

What inference about the flag can be made based on a “A Flag with 50 Stars”?


Few people understand the significance of the number of stars and stripes on the flag.


The placement of stars on the flag has been a design challenge throughout history.


The decision to change the design of the flag has always cause controversy.


Its past history is more well known by Americans than its more modern history.

Question 2
Part B

Which evidence from the text best supports the answer in Part A?


“There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes.”

“Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag.”

“Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag.”

“The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly?”

My favorite color is yellow, not many people know why. They think it is because it is bright. But no it is not just for that reason. One of my favorite people has this saying ¨Today is a good day to have a good day¨ And I have no idea why I think of yellow when I think of that but I do! And I also love the summer time, like it might just beat volleyball. When I think of summer I think of big smiles, bonfires, long nights, days out on the lake, tan lines like nobody's business, sunflowers, lemonade, pigtails, ice cream etc. When I think of those things it makes me happy and excited. Which reminds me of yellow, again I don't know why. Yellow, yellow, yellow :)

"The Best Board Game"
I have always been a big fan of board games. Monopoly, Candy Land, Scattergories, you name it. When it comes to the best board game to play as a family, there is one clear winner: That game is Sorry. Sorry is a fun game for players of all ages. It is as easy as drawing cards and counting numbered spaces. Most children and adults can play it without becoming frustrated because a lot of the game is based on the luck of the drawn cards. The colors of the pawns include green, red, yellow, and blue. Anyone can win at any time, which makes it a fair game for families of all ages to play.


A. Lastly, Sorry is the best game for families to play because it does not require a lot of strategy.

B. When it comes to the best board game to play as a family, there is one clear winner: That game is Sorry.

C. I have always been a big fan of board games.

D. Most children and adults can play it without becoming frustrated, which makes it a fun game for the whole family.
