Today, after Morning Work TIme and Morning Meeting, we read a couple of books by David McPhail (Pig Pig Goes to Camp and Pigs Ahoy). We read them for enjoyment, first, but also because they are well-written and hopefully gave the kids some ideas that they can use in their writing.

After the books, we had Writer's Workshop. The kids wrote for about 20 minutes today - and all words (no pictures!). They did a super job.

After writing, we worked on math. We talked about number lines with varying scales (counting by 1s, 10s, 5s, and 2s) and how to show that on a number line.

After math, we headed outside in the beautiful weather for a short recess, and then up to the computer lab for our time there. After all of that, it was time for us to pack up and head home!
