Solon Schools

The last day of kindergarten was full of wonder at Roxbury Elementary as students watched their classroom butterflies spread their wings and take flight.

In the weeks leading up to the release, kindergartners cared for caterpillars in a classroom butterfly habitat and closely observed their life cycle. They watched as the caterpillars grew, formed chrysalides and emerged as butterflies.

Students learned about the characteristics of living things as they observed how butterflies grow and change, need energy, respond to their environment and have traits that make them unique.

The experience helped students practice respect and care for living things. It also built an important foundation for what they will continue exploring in first and second grade, including how living things use their environment to meet their needs.

Mark your calendar! Solon Fire Rescue is hosting a Sensory Friendly Open House from 6-7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 25, at Solon Fire Station 2, 6320 SOM Center Road.

This small-scale event is designed for individuals who may need a less intense, sensory-inclusive environment and their families.

Guests can meet firefighters and paramedics, check out trucks and equipment, spray the fire hose, tour the station, make giant bubbles and interact with a miniature horse from Fieldstone Farm Therapeutic Riding Center.

Light refreshments will be provided. Please RSVP if you plan to attend.
