Cheep! Cheep!

Chicks have taken over our classroom! 

For about 21 days we watched and turned our eggs in the incubator. Then last week,THEY HATCHED! 

SO EXCITING!

My sweet room mom even made us a special little chick snack!

Meet Gingerbread, Crispy, Kitty and Fluffy. 

Here are a few pictures of some of our chick fun:








Today, the chicks were taken to the farm. My kids were so concerned about the farm calling them by name and being able to tell them apart. It was so sweet. It was so much fun to have chicks in the room and I can't wait to do it again next year!

We have also been learning about insects although they have been over shadowed by the chicks! We made these really cute butterfly life cycles today as a way to cope with our loss of the chicks. : )




I can't wait to hang these up in the hallway. 
Next week we are starting our plant unit. Hooray! : )
Y'all have a great weekend.
