Dear Readers,

4-5 6-7 8-9 10-11

we can learn about how the pitcher manages to put a spin on the ball. Summer is a great time to read, read, READ. Even bookstores and libraries offer special “Summer Reading” suggestions. We hope you will use the Question of the Month form on this page to tell us which is your favorite book. Write about why you like this book. Use more paper if you need to. We are looking for book reports like this to possibly publish in future editions of Happy summer! Kid Scoop News.

Here comes summer with sunshine, water play, more daylight hours, strawberries, and more. What do you love most about summer? This month, Kid Scoop News heads outdoors to learn about America’s National Parks. While not every state has a national park, every state has parks of some kind. Some parks are places to learn about nature, some about history, and nearly all are great places to walk, hike, swim, and delight in the great outdoors. Summertime is time to watch or play baseball, too. And while we may not be able to go to a baseball game, Kid Scoop News

Happy June!, Summer is finally here in Louisiana, and that means sunny days, baseball games, snowballs, and spending time outside with family and friends. At the Governor’s Mansion, we love taking evening walks with Blanc and enjoying some summer fun in the pool. This month, you’ll learn about America’s beautiful National Parks, renewable and non-renewable energy, seahorses, and the science of baseball. National Parks help protect amazing places like mountains, forests, and beaches for everyone to enjoy. You’ll also discover how different types of energy power our homes and communities. Did you know seahorses are one of the only animals where the dads carry the babies? And baseball is full of science too! From the speed of a pitch to the way a bat can send a ball flying through the air! I hope you all have a safe, happy, and adventure-filled summer filled with learning and lots of Louisiana fun. While you’re having fun, don’t forget to stay up to speed with your reading, and stay tuned for the First Lady’s Summer Reading List coming early June! Hugs and high fives, First Lady Sharon Landry
