Fabulous 7 of 207

The chicks are here!  The chicks are here!  We are learning about animal behavior and the life cycle through the hatching of chicks.  Earlier this week the eggs arrived from the Science Center and were placed in the incubator.  Within 24 hours all seven of our little feathered friends pushed out of their eggs and were doing "push ups" as the kids observed to learn to stand.  Now they are in their Brooder Box, eating, drinking, making a mess, and announcing their presence.

We suggested and voted on names using our Socrative app.  The results were Oreo, Tremont Jr., Arnold, Mouse, Peep, Gerald, and Buffalo.  Our amazing 4th graders have learned to take care of them and even held them this week.  It has been a very enjoyable experience!
