Wednesday!

We loved the beautiful, sunny day!  It was great having Sky back from New Zealand...we missed her!  We will say good bye to Logan on Friday as he moves to a new house and school...we will miss him!

We learned a bit about different kinds of poems today - Abecedarian (an alphabetical poem that uses the letters A to Z in their proper order to form the first letters of every line), Acrostic (the first letters of the lines form a word or sentence when read downward) Picture Poem (the meaning is suggested by the arrangement of the words) and Haiku.  Love the poems from this book even though they cause a lot of craziness after they are read "Take Me Out of the Bathtub".

We had our Reading Buddies visit today.  We read for about 15 minutes and then decided to go out early for recess - we wanted to spend some extra time in the sun!  We ended the day in music with the wonderful Mr. Rothbaum!
