Poem
Polar Bowling
It used to be that polar bears
went bowling, just for grins,
with snowballs for their bowling balls
and penguins as the pins.

The bears would have a blast
with all the snowballs that they threw.
The penguins weren't as happy;
that's the only time they flew.

So penguins all moved south and now
they're at the other pole.
Well, wouldn't you move far away
if bears used you to bowl?
--Kenn Nesbitt

What we did
-listened to a bowling song by Raffi-
http://new.music.yahoo.com/raffi/tracks/bowling-song--764556

-played subtraction bowling. We set up 10 blocks (pins) and rolled a tennis ball to knock them down. I had him count the number of pins he knocked down and the number of pins that were left.

-Went bowling with Grandpa Miller! Noah won (101), Livi (99), Ezra and Grandpa
(87), me (75)I've never bowled so low in my life. Ezra didn't use the ramp, the other kids did. It was really fun!
