Kindergarten Career Day And Community Unit



The Kindergarten classes will be learning about different jobs in the community.  The focus is to see how everyone needs to work together to make a family and community work smoothly.

On May 2nd your child can dress up as a person with a career they might like to have when they grow up.  Other years we have had doctors, teachers, firemen, scientists, actresses, writers, nurses and more!  We will talk about how each person/job helps the community.  We will also take and print a picture and write about it in a book for each class.

Students can come to school already dressed as their career choice.  Every year it has been a great success!

The following week we will be taking a walkMs. Tacke’s class will go on Wednesday, May 8th.  
ing trip to Coborns to see how the grocery store operates and contributes to the needs of our community.  We will look at different jobs to be done to make the store run smoothly.
