TGIFriday, May 3

Today was absolutely gorgeous and we took advantage of that by going outside for special. (Mr. B was out and there wasn't a sub...) In Math, we kept on working with our board games. We began a new book about Economics in Read Aloud by Gary Paulsen, The Lawn Boy. This is a short book about a young entrepreneur (a 12 year old boy starts a lawn mowing business). In Reader's Workshop, we worked with abbreviations and on an Ohio Studies Weekly about people with character. Some kiddos are finished with their response to Van Allsburg and others are in all different phases of the writing process. Finally, we finished our day with Economics work in preparation for our upcoming field trip.
