Just in time for US Independence Day, this week on The Children's Hour we have a show on Patriotism & Leadership. What does it mean to be patriotic, according to some bilingual 8th graders at Albuquerque's Washington Middle School?
Then, we travel across Albuquerque to Adobe Acres Elementary, where kids describe what makes for a good leader, and what qualities diminish the job.
We also learn about the history of the Pledge of Allegiance. This show is mixed with excellent music.
