Book group day

I forgot my camera, so these pictures are actually from last month and sadly don't show everyone, but today was our book group co-op day; and it was pretty special. We discussed Love That Dog, a book of poetry by Sharon Creech. The kids selected bone-shaped questions from a dog bowl, wrote poems to decorate a poet-tree (get it?!), performed a little reader's theater, shared poems aloud, and ate brownies just like the kids from Miss Stretchberry's class. Great activities all.

But the most wonderful part was, and I think always is, when the kids began to chime in with original thoughts and questions. I'm so glad we know this fabulous bunch of people.
