Spring Equinox<\/h2>\n

The spring equinox, or the first day of spring occurred on Mar. 20 at 7:46 am, while we were on spring break. We looked closely at the word equinox and tried to figure what parts of the word we could recognize. We noticed that the word has a “equ” which we have heard in the word “equal”.\u00a0 Then we looked at the “nox” or “noc” and remembered “nocturnal animals” were animals that were awake at night.\u00a0 We learned that sunrise on Mar. 20 was at 7:23 am and the sunset was 7:25 pm that same day. Therefore, the number of daylight hours is about the same number of hours of darkness.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Table Groups<\/h2>\n

On Mar. 30, we moved into table groups that we will be with for the remainder of the school year. Prior to spring break, we chose six classmates who we could sit with with respect to what makes a good tablemate. Of the six people chosen, there would be a guarantee to be grouped with one of the choices. After sitting with our new groups, we talked about the similarities and chose a name that each member agreed with. Then we made posters to represent our groups.<\/p>\n

Grand Buddies – Mar. 12, 2026<\/h2>\n

On our way to see the Grand Buddies, we saw many signs of spring. We saw blossoms on our way as well giving us lots of inspiration to make the cherry blossom art with our Grand Buddies.<\/p>\n
