每周一是我们学校的升旗仪式。一大清早，同学们都穿好校服、佩戴好红领巾，排着整齐的队伍，安安静静地来到操场上等待升旗仪式的开始。

八点铃声响过后，全场一片肃静，静的连一根针掉到地上也听的见。这时只听见辅导员老师一声令下：“出旗。”只见中队旗手扛着国旗，后面紧跟着两名护旗手。他们迈着整齐的步伐，雄纠纠气昂昂地走向升旗台，做好升旗的准备。接着辅导员老师又一声令下：“升国旗，奏国歌，敬礼。”这时，庄严的国歌在我耳边响起。同学们站得更笔直了。右手高举过头，眼睛盯着冉冉升起的国旗。高高飘扬的国旗，就像在说：“你们要好好学习，长大要做个有用的人。”我望着国旗心情十分激动，心想：“国旗，国旗我一定会听您的的话，好好学习做个有用的人。”
