Today's Big Dig

Today I practiced writing the numbers 3 and 4. I also practiced writing the letter Ll in upper case and lower case. We read the book "Daisy's Big Dig" by Angie Morgan and wrote a summary. The story was about a girl name Daisy who had lots of neighbors. There was a problem, her neighbor Mr. Hofmeister hurt his back and could not dig in his garden. Daisy got all the other neighbors to come help him. Then, we had a Big Dig of our own! We spent the rest of the morning digging up the area where we will plant our fruit and vegetable garden tomorrow. I said something funny, "Gardening is hard work, just like Lucy said in that book we read on Tuesday." We also found lots of things to keep.

We read and summarized the book

My dad prepared the area where we will till today.

I supervised my dad tilling the area where we will plant our garden.

My dog Boo Boo Bear wasn't much help looking for rocks.

See, Boo Boo Bear is not much help at all.

Getting Ready to Grow a Garden

I started today by writing the day, month, date, and year on my goal sheet. Then I wrote a sentence. Afterward, I watched a funny video that taught me the sound that every letter makes. The letter N was a bad letter because it kept saying "NO!". Then I read the book, "Good Grief! Gardening Is Hard Work", by Charles Schulz. I also wrote words in my Math, Science, and Social Studies Journals. I stayed in the lines and even wrote one of the S right. Then I learned to play a new game called Dominos. Finally, I surveyed my family to see what kind of fruits and vegetables will should grow in our garden.

I like taking surveys.
