Preparing for Our Chicks

We started learning about lifecycles in school. We looked at photos of Mrs. Parnell growing up and changing and then looked at photos of her daughter Lindsay growing and changing. We watched two short videos of Ms. P from the Science Center meeting with the farmer and getting the eggs and then we saw the giant incubator at the Science Center that will be taking care of the eggs until they hatch. We will be watching more videos about the chicks and how they are growing and changing in their eggs and then we will have eggs in our classroom incubator to watch the chicks hatch. We will be keeping a science observation journal to document the changes that the chicks will be going through. The students have been excited to learn about the chicks. We made a craft of a chick hatching out of the egg then we wrote about our chicks. We colored our own spring eggs and next week the eggs will arrive and we will search for our sight words in eggs out on the playground. We have egg mania at school!

Highlights of the Week of March 27th

 It was a short week with Teacher Professional Development on Thursday, but we learned a lot in school. We continue to learn about chicks and prepare for our egg arrivals. We have started to learn about shapes and started working on Topic 12 in Envision and we started our own Shape books. We continue to work on our number words. On Monday we read our Number Rumba books. We highlighted the number words, practiced writing the number words and the numerals to match and we also underlined the rhymes in the book. We colored our own Spring eggs and made eggs hatching art projects then we wrote about them. We worked on April calendar pieces and the April calendar. Mrs. Woodward came in and did an inclusion lesson with us and we played Bingo in the cafeteria with our 4th grade partners for our whole school reward for the month of March!
