We had picnic blankets.​ We had picnic baskets. We had picnic food and snacks. 

But mostly...​

We had BOOKS!​

Lots of books!

The picnic set-up

A relaxing, calm environment was set-up for the students

The reading

Students chose books from the book basket to enjoy reading

The book review

Students listened to stories and looked at the pictures in the books. Then they were encouraged to review the books they read.

What an amazing day!
