NT was up to watch PBS's Cyberchase on high-low estimation. The kids played with the Magna Tiles and cardboard building blocks, but for most of the morning NT had his nose in his tropical fish book. He had the calculator out and was trying to figure out how many inches of new fish he could get if he got rid of a certain number of inches of his existing fish.

After lunch we had homeschool play group where this week's activity was a play dough craft. NT finished quickly and then spent the rest of the time throwing snowballs outside in the sunshine with a bunch of other boys.

We stopped at the library on the way home where NT picked up several more books on fish.
