​Biomes were the focus of our study in March. The children have learned to identify different parts of a biome: the soil, water, air, energy from the sun, plant and animal life. As we looked at deserts, oceans, tropical and temperate forests, grasslands and wetlands we talked about each part of the biomes and how do these look like for each of them. How much energy from the sun does a desert get? How much water? What kinds of plant and animals live in the desert? What about an ocean?

We had a lot of fun taking imaginary trips to different parts of the world and trying to guess how it would be to live there. We still have two more biomes to discuss: polar regions and mountains. We will do that after the break.

Also in March we learned about two holidays celebrated by our families: Ayyam-i-Ha, a Bahá'í  holiday of gift giving, showing love, fellowship and unity and Martisor, a Romanian celebration of the coming of spring. We were very grateful for this opportunity. Thank you to Lana, Rodi and Sara and their families for sharing their traditions with us.

In April we are going to study flowers and their parts and life cycle. We will also look at flowers in art and in culinary uses.
