A first-grader goes deep

Bret Turner (@bretjturner), who teaches first and second graders at an Oakland private school, saw this tweet go viral.

The first guess from one of my 1st graders was “death” and such an awed, somber, reflective hush fell over the class that I didn’t want to tell them that actually the answer is the letter e, which just seemed so banal in the moment.
