Stepping back to the cave days
At Mount Madonna School, sixth- and seventh-grade world history students and teacher Tiffany Wayne recently studied prehistoric cave art. As part of their inquiry into what clues historians and archaeologists can find about the past, students viewed images and videos of ancient art and artifacts and analyzed the meanings of different markings and symbols. Next, students borrowed some charcoal from the art classroom and were able to take advantage of the campus' outdoor environment to create their own prehistoric art. Mount Madonna School is located at 491 Summit Road. For more information, call (408) 847-2717.

Spring wildflower fields
I have always been truly amazed at the tenacity and patience of wildflowers. Seeds sit on hot bone-dry ground year after desiccating year, all the while remaining viable, waiting for the right moment. “No, not this spring,” says the seed. “I'll never be able to sprout, create a flower, and most important, produce mature seeds on that paltry rainfall. I think I'll wait.”
