Зеленый контур в лучах восходящего солнца изображает границы нашего государства. Лучи восходящего солнца символизируют счастливую жизнь и говорят о том, что белорусы принадлежат к этнической группе славян. Издревле славяне поклонялись солнцу, т. к. оно дает тепло, свет и жизнь всему живому. Земной шар на гербе говорит о том, что наш народ ценит равенство всех народов на Земле.
Герб с обеих сторон оплетают снопы колосьев, в которые вплетены голубые цветочки льна и розового клевера. Это обозначения главных природных богатств нашей страны.
Лен - это растение, из которого люди уже давно научились делать одежду, скатерти, рушники и постельное белье. Изделия изо льна прочнее хлопковых и теплее шелковых.
Клевер - это лучший корм для животных, которых белорусы с древнейших времен научились разводить и выращивать.
Венок из колосьев - это символ главного богатства наших людей — хлеба. Кроме того, это способ обращения наших предков к божественным силам с просьбой об урожае. Белорусы каждую осень отмечают праздник «Дожинки», на котором награждают лучших хлеборобов и плетут венки из последних колосьев. Такие венки оставляют в доме до следующей осени, как символ богатства.
Колосья хлеба на гербе Беларуси обвиты красно-зеленой лентой с надписью «Республика Беларусь».
В верхней части герба горит красная звездочка. Это символ мужества нашего народа, которое люди проявляли во время многочисленных войн с различными чужеземными захватчиками. Великая Отечественная война была самой страшной и разрушительной для нашей страны.
5. Read the words of the National Anthem of the Republic of Belarus, memorize them and then sing the anthem.

Разам з братамі мужна вякамі Мы баранілі родны парог, У бітвах за волю, бітвах за долю Свой здабывалі сцяг перамог!
Слаўся, зямлі нашай светлае імя, Слаўся, народаў братэрскі саюз! Наша любімая маці-Радзіма, Вечна жыві і квітней, Беларусь!
Дружба народаў - сіла народаў - Наш запаветны, сонечны шлях. Горда ж узвіся ў ясныя высі, Сцяг пераможны - радасці сцяг!
Слаўся, зямлі нашай светлае імя, Слаўся, народаў братэрскі саюз! Наша любімая маці-Радзіма, Вечна жыві і квітней, Беларусь!
