Mother's Day 2015



Central Park Exploring








We celebrated Will's friend Luc's 7th birthday on a beautiful spring day in Central Park. His family knows all the best spots to explore, and the boys had an amazing morning splashing, climbing, running, and jumping.

Self-Poem

I have hair as blonde as wheat
I have eyes as blue as a blue jay
I have skin that is smooth
like a window
I have a smile that makes
people "feeeeeel" good
My heart is red
like a cardinal
flying

Top of the Rock!







Will had so much fun climbing the rocks in Central Park with our friends Ava and Elise, who were visiting from North Carolina. These kids are fast climbers!

Bubble Brainstorm



Brody, Pierre, Zach, Max, Jasper and Will experimented with bubbles during a class field trip at the New York Hall of Science. Will's favorite fact he learned about bubbles is that no matter what shape bubble wand you use (e.g. square, star-shaped, triangle) to make a bubble, the bubble always turns out to be a sphere! Why? Bubbles are "minimal surface structures," which means that they always hold the air inside of them with the least possible surface area. A bubble's thin wall of soap is pulling in while the air inside of it is pushing out. The geometric form with the least surface area for any given volume is always a sphere, not a pyramid or a cube or any other form.

Will's classmate Sofia illustrates this fact, at left.
