Today for math we learned about ordinal numbers and yes we used chocolate as our learning tool.  Everything is better with chocolate!  We then did reinforcement with several different examples.  Later we reviewed telling sentences and asking questions and then learned about exclamations.  The girls practiced writing exclamation points and then did sentences with exclamation points and also said them out loud to show expression.  Then we read In The Tall Tall Grass by Denise Fleming.  We read through it once and then read it again while the girls looked for the caterpillar on each page.  We then did an art project where they made grass and cut out pictures of creatures and hid them in the grass.  Other than the air show practicing in our backyard the art project and maybe the chocolate were the highlight of the day!
