Literacy Voyage: Exploring the Ocean
Wednesday, May 16
1:00 – 2:00 p.m.
This interactive series encourages young readers to explore literacy through engaging stories and hands-on STEAM activities. This session, scheduled for May 16, 2025, at 1:00 PM, will focus on the ocean! Children will read Way Down Deep in the Deep Blue Sea by Jan Peck, a lively story that introduces rhyming words and sequencing. Following the reading, participants will take part in a STEAM activity where they will create their own ocean in a bottle using water, oil, food coloring, and small sea creature toys. Led by Linda Andrews.
Planting a Three Sisters Garden
Saturday, May 24
1:00 – 3:00 p.m.
The three sisters, corn, beans, and squash, work together to help each other grow. Corn, the oldest sister, standing tall in the middle, while squash protects the soil with her leaves and beans grow through those leaves and climb the corn. We invite children of all ages to join us as we celebrate spring and the new growing season as we plant our gardens with the three sisters.
