Kansas Day is January 29. Since January 29, 1861, when Kansas was declared a state in the United States of America, many things have changed. How people live, dress, work and play look different in 2022. Even the trees and the land in Kansas look different than they did in 1861.
Changes are part of life.
Here is a story about a big tree that is important to one family. The dad in the family Alan Zweibel and a friend David Catrow wrote a special book about this tree.
You can hear Alan Zweibel reading the story aloud and look at the pictures at the site below.
Our Tree Named Steve by Alan Zweibel and David Catrow
Also, HERE is a site with teaching and learning ideas that go along with Our Tree Named Steve. Common-woman has not read every single lesson plan. Some activities and ideas may not be exactly suitable for every age and every child.
Happy Kansas Day from common-woman.com!
