One of Georgia's SS standards for first grade is this:

SS1CG2 The student will explain the meaning of the patriotic words to America (My Country ‘Tis of Thee) and America the Beautiful.

America is no problem, but America the Beautiful is tough! Do you teach this, and if so, what do you do? (I know it's the SS standard and not mine, but I'm happy to include it.) The lyrics are pretty hard!
