When was the star spangled banner renamed the star spangled banner?

The flag of the United States of America known as the "Star Spangled Banner" was flying over Fort McHenry on the morning of September 14th, 1814 after a 25 hour bombardment by British warships during the War of 1812. When the young lawyer, Francis Scott Key, awoke in the early morning light and saw the flag was still there he immediately started penning a poem, "In Defense of Fort M'Henry." The last lines of the first verse... "O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?" The name stuck especially when his poem became our National Anthem.


What are the star spangle banner lyrics?

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more! Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

I need a definition of the star spangled banner for third grade students?

The Star Spangled Banner is the national anthem of the United States. It was written as a poem by Francis Scott Key in 1814, during the defense of Fort McHenry in Baltimore during the War of 1812. A spangle is a decoration sewn into fabric or clothing (think along the lines of sequins). In this case, the star spangles are the stars in the upper left corner of the flag of the United States (the flag is the "banner", which is another word for a flag). The national anthem, "The Star Spangled Banner" actually has four verses, but only the first is commonly sung. The last two lines of the first verse ask, "Oh, say, does that star spangled banner yet wave / O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?"
