From Elise's school:
Today we reviewed and compared all the different and crazy ways that things grow. X wondered if our spinach leaves came from a tree, so we investigated. We found out that the leaves grow right out of the dirt. All the kids were very concerned with how spinach gets clean. As we discussed all the different patterns that bugs "wear', Elise pointed out that X and X both had stripes like bees (and tigers). X gave such quick, thoughtful, imaginative answers to everything today that I had to ask her why her brain was so fast. She attributed it to bacon for breakfast. X was the first one to solve our wheat thin equation at snack. He turned 4 small squares into 1 big square! X mastered paper tearing in art. He pinched with his hands close together and then moved his hands in opposite directions. X is learning a new letter sound game on the computer. She is going to be in charge of teaching it to her friends.
