May 11th - 15th

 We have egg-citing news!!  Our chicks hatched!!  We came to school Monday to find our incubator filled with baby chicks.  The boys and girls were so happy to see the little chicks moving around and climbing all over the place!  We had to keep them in the incubator until each little chick was fully dried. 

This week we celebrated two birthdays in kindergarten!  Happy Birthday Francesca and Seth!

Francesca celebrated her special day with her parents being our mystery readers and Seth celebrated with his classmates by having a glowstick dance party!

A huge thank you to our mystery readers this week!  We are always excited to have the parents come in and read to the class.  This week we were so lucky to have Fiona's mom, and Francesca's mom and dad join us as our mystery readers!

By the middle of the week, we were able to transport our little chicks to the brooder box where we could see them and where they have plenty of room to move about.  They also have food, water, and a little heater to keep them warm!  We were able to get up close to our chicks by forming a large circle with our PreK friends. The teachers placed the chicks in the circle, and we watched as the chicks explored the area.  Some even checked out our sneakers! The students learned to use just two fingers to pet the chicks since they are still young and fragile.  It's been so fun learning about our new little chicks!
