Reading
Today would have been our field trip to the Perot Museum. In honor of that, enjoy listening to this read aloud of Brian’s Winter. This book is a sequel to Gary Paulsen’s book, Hatchet. As readers, we get to take a virtual field trip every time we open the pages of our books. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy!

If the weather is nice, go outside and eat a picnic lunch in your yard like we would have done at the museum.
