Did you know?

The first soda was created in the late 1700s. It was originally made as a medicinal tonic!
Soda is fizzy because it has carbon dioxide gas in it, which creates all those fun bubbles!
Different countries have their own special sodas. For example, in Mexico, a popular soda called "Mexican Coke" is made with cane sugar!
If you pour soda over ice, it makes a cool fizzy sound; if you shake it up, it will explode when you open it!
Some sodas contain caffeine, a stimulant that can help people feel more alert.

Raya

Raya is the first Disney princess inspired by Southeast Asian culture, specifically drawing from various cultures like Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia.
She is portrayed as a fierce and independent warrior, emphasizing themes of bravery, trust, and unity.
The filmmakers consulted cultural experts and traveled to Southeast Asia to ensure authenticity in the film’s visuals, traditions, and customs.
In the movie, Raya searches for the last dragon, Sisu, who is based on the mythology of dragons in Asian cultures. Dragons are known for their wisdom and playful nature.
Her combat skills are influenced by various martial arts styles, showcasing her agility and strength.
What we learn from Raya:
- Overcoming differences can lead to greater strength and success.
- Facing challenges head-on is essential for growth.
- Learn to let go of past grievances to build a better future.

Math Fun

The Square of Numbers Ending in 5
1. Remove the 5 from the number. Look only at the part before the 5.
  Example: For 252252, think of the 22.
2. Multiply that number by the next higher number.
  For 22: 2×3=62×3=6.
3. Write 25 at the end.
  252=625252=625.
Multiplying by 9 (Using Your Fingers!)
1. Hold out both of your hands with your fingers spread wide.
2. Number your fingers from 1 to 10. Your left hand is for 1-5, and your right hand is for 6-10.
3. To multiply a number by 9, bend the corresponding finger for the number you want to multiply by 9.
Example
1. 9 × 3: Bend the third finger.
2. Count the fingers to the left of the bent finger: 2 fingers = 20.
3. Count the fingers to the right of the bent finger: 7 fingers = 7.
4. So, 9 × 3 = 27.

Though they may seem hard and unchanging, bones are alive! They’re constantly being broken down and rebuilt by cells called osteoclasts and osteoblasts.
Babies start with around 270 bones, but as they grow, some of these bones fuse. By the time you’re an adult, you’ll have 206 bones.
The smallest bone in your body is the stapes, found in your middle ear.
The femur (thigh bone) is the longest and strongest bone in your body, supporting your weight and helping you stand, walk, and jump.
High-impact activities like running, jumping, and lifting weights help strengthen bones by making them denser.
