Super Kinders plant a tulip garden to participate in the Journey North Project

"In Journey North, students plant and observe tulip gardens to track the arrival of spring. They observe and record when their own plants – and those in other school gardens in North America – emerge from the ground and bloom. As students track this one plant type, along with temperatures, day length, and other seasonal signs, they discover how different factors influence the wave of spring. This sets the stage for better understanding our changing climate."-learner.org/tulips

The students planted red emperor tulip bulbs and used wooden tulips made for us by the Girl Scouts to mark the place they planted their bulbs.
