School Six students participated in our 2nd annual "Switch A Day" where students receive a 30 minute orientation of their next grade. In Mrs. Dort's kindergarten class, students read the book "Look Out Kindergarten, Here I Come" by Nancy Carlson. Then they completed a graphic organizer to predict what they will do in Kindergarten, made comparisons to what the main character in the book does at school and then wrote a sentence of what they would do in Kindergarten, following the Tools of the Mind sentence starter for play plans, "I am going to........"
