National Flag

 Every independent country in the world has its own national flag. It symbolizes the sovereignty of the country. It's a symbol of independence. Like every other free nation, Bangladesh our motherland also has its own national flag. But no other nations in the world have sacrificed as much as we did. So we can say with pride that we earned our national flag at the cost of the blood of our martyrs of the liberation war. Our national flag is rectangular in shape and the proportion of its length and width is 10:6 or 5:3. Almost all government offices and educational institutions hoist the national flag every day. According to our constitution, the national flag should be half-mast on International Mother Language Day 21st February and on our national mourning day, 15th August. If the government of a country declares any day as mourning day, then the national flag should be kept half-mast. Our national flag contains two color-the background of the flag is green in color which is the symbol of youth and in the middle of the flag, there is a red circle which symbolizes the blood that our martyrs have sacrificed for the freedom of our country. Our national flag is a symbol of our victory and achievement. That's why the national flag is hoisted when our country achieves something great. On independence day and victory day, almost every household hoist our national flag. There are certain rules for hoisting the national flag. We should follow them so that we can show our true respect for the national flag. It is our duty to protect our national flag from all kinds of disrespect. As a Bangladeshi citizen, I am really proud of my country and our national flag. Every time I see our national flag, it reminds me of the uncountable sacrifices of our freedom fighters. and martyrs.

My Visit to Sylhet

 Sylhet is one of the most beautiful places in Bangladesh. It's a place of natural beauty. Sylhet is widely known for having tea gardens and hills. It is also a holy place as it is known as the place of 360 awlias(saints). Last year I got the opportunity to go to Sylhet. I visited Sylhet with my family. We went there by train. I sat beside the window and enjoy the scenes through the window. I was overwhelmed by the natural scenes. After seven hours long journey, we reached Sylhet. We visited all the places of tourist attractions like- Jaflong which is near the Indian border, Ratargul swamp forest, Lauachara forest, and Tangua Haor. We spent five days in Sylhet. I enjoyed each and every moments of my Sylhet tour.

My country-Bangladesh

The name of our country is the People's Republic of Bangladesh. It is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Our country was a part of Pakistan before 1971. Then we freed our country and achieved victory after nine month's liberation war. 3 million people sacrificed their lives in the liberation war in 1971. Our independence day is 26th March and Victory day is 16th December. The national language of our country is Bangla. It is also a matter of great pride for us that we are the only nation that sacrificed their lives for the sake of their mother tongue on  21st February of 1952. In order to show respect to them, UNESCO has declared 21st February as International Mother Language Day. The name of the capital of Bangladesh is Dhaka.

My Pet (Bird)

Birds are the beautiful creature of almighty. I love birds. That's why on my last birthday my brother presented me a parrot. I call it Mithu. It is very beautiful. It has a red beak, long tail, and green feather. I give it foods and water. It loves to eat seeds, rice, chilies, and fruits like mango, guava. Mithu is very intelligent. She can imitate people's voice. She says almost anything that we talk. When I go to school, I put her on a cage. When I come back from school, she becomes very happy and starts shouting. She always prefers to be among us and get pampered by us.  Mithu is not only a bird but also a very good friend of mine. I love her company more than anything else. She is loved by all of my family members. We are really grateful to have her in our life.
