In Kindergarten, we have two very important Texas leaders to learn about:
-Stephen F. Austin
-Jose Navarro
As a class, we discussed what a contribution is.
We talked about how we can contribute at home, school or even in our community.
Here are a few of the contributions we came up with:
-Helping others when they are hurt
-Picking up trash in our classroom or around our school
-Cleaning up our rooms at home
-Giving food to the needy
We tied our discussion of contributions to our special Texas leaders.
How did these leaders contribute to our state?
Stephen F. Austin contributions to Texas:
-He helped bring families to Texas to live.
-Schools and a university is named after him
-Our state capital is named "Austin" from SFA
-Known as the "Father of Texas"

| We compared George Washington to SFA. How did they both contribute to us as Texans and Americans? |
