First graders are the best scientists. We are very observant and super curious. As we study the life cycle this year, we'll be watching some butterflies transform from caterpillar, to chrysallis, to butterfly right before our very eyes. Today we got to meet our little friends and observe.

 | Remi shared an awesome article about friendship between nations. In 1912 the nation of Japan gifted 3,000 cherry blossom trees to the U.S. symbolizing friendship. Friendship may change and look different between the seasons, but it's always there. Each spring there is a parade in Washington D.C. to celebrate the strong bond between two countries where you can smell the beautiful pink blossoms. |
