The second grade is full of life! The students have been studying life cycles and have a lot going on in their classrooms. They have plants growing, chicks hatching, caterpillars changing into chrysalises, and some tadpoles. Mrs. Peters' class even found a surprise stowaway in the pond water for the tadpoles.
