Green Thumbs

This week we began an experiment to test the needs of plants.  Evan G. Is pictured below watering one of our begonias.  We have placed begonias in different locations around our room and will give them different amounts of water to see what effect it has on their growth.  

Saying Goodbye

On Monday we wished our butterflies a fond farewell as we released them before recess.  It has been fascinating watching them grow over these last few weeks from tiny caterpillars to forming their chrysalis and emerging into butterflies.  The release is pictured below!

Navajo Sand Art

We "toured" the Southwest this week! We visited the Grand Canyon, King Ranch, and many more locations. We ended our tour by creating Navajo inspired sand art (pictured below). I can't believe we only have one more tour to go this year. Time is flying by. Next up, the West region.
