It’s International Ask a Question Day!

Hi readers,

Today is International Ask a Question Day. This day happens every year on March 14, the anniversary of Albert Einstein’s birthday! Albert Einstein was a scientist who thought it was important to always ask questions, be curious and learn.

In the spirit of learning, make sure you ask lots of questions today! If there is something you want to know, a good way to learn is to ask a teacher or parent who might know the answer. Asking a question is one of the best ways to learn new things!

Until next time,
