Mighty Oaks from Little Acorns Grow

I have been teaching the new plants/seeds unit for many years.  This is the first time a child brought in an acorn just ready to grow.  A. M. was digging in her garden and came across a barely sprouting acorn seed.  She brought it to school for further study (as any young botanist would).  We kept it in a barely closed ziploc bag with a bit of moisture in it.  Sure enough, it's beginning to grow. 

I couldn't think of a more symbolic ending to a wonderful school year.
