Kentucky Derby Activities {QR Codes, YouTube Videos, Picture Books
I wanted to create a day centered around the Kentucky Derby since it is a local event that is known world wide. Many of my students don't know much about the Derby and we are only 45 minutes away from Louisville, Kentucky.

There are 2 versions: one with a word box and one with a reflection task. Hope you
