A hike and a story in Littleton on the Yapp land. Easy hike! Go hike and read!

Grade 2 wonders turned into action. The pond was super low and our grade 2 scientists took action to share what they learned and noticed in letters to the town Conservation Commission. Thank you to the Conservation Commission for a thoughtful response! You empowered us all!

A hike in search of spring surprises.. spotted herons flying, geese and goslings, turtles basking, ducks diving, and so many leaves leafing out. We were filled with wonders!

Nothing like a Just for fun moment with Mrs Hogan! Mrs Hogan led us through an April Fools joke inspired by the hilarious Duck! Rabbit! book. “It’s a bunny… April Fools! It’s a Duck!” -#justforfun

Second grade scientists exploring spring changes! Investigating vernal pools, hidden animal habitats and our changing waterways.
