Good morning, Div. 5, 

I hope you had a wonderful weekend celebrating the amazing people in your lives! 

Reminder we have a Class Meeting at 11am for those who can attend!

This week’s plant is frog leaf, also known as plantain. This is another simple one. You will have to look closely at the leaves, but you will soon realize that you have seen this plant around quite a bit. Can you see why it is called a frog leaf? Although it was not originally from North America, this plant lived and shared so harmoniously, that people often think that it has always belonged here. It has a home here now.

Here is a guide from Lori Snyder explaining traditional understandings (Black and white photo to the left).

Here is a video to help you identify and learn about one of the ways you frogleaf has been traditionally used by the Squamish First Nations: https://safeYouTube.net/w/gMzD
