May 17



This wet week went by so fast. We are on day 16 with the chicks, by this time next week there should be a crowd of new chicks to observe! Thanks to Mrs. Dyer for joining us to candle some of the eggs. Kids were able to see the little air pocket that the chicks will use to take their first breath!

The group finished up how-to instructions for planting a seed (we planted one with the instructions and it grew!) and are working on other pieces now (Either How-to: wash hands, eat snack, or  brush teeth). They also recorded word problems on Seesaw for Mrs. Dyer's class to solve!

Two groups investigated the many rain gardens and impervious surfaces around the school in order to better understand storm water (some of which ends up in the Allen Brook as pollution). They drew images of those surfaces and the places water can go.

Lastly, check out this Twitter exchange we had as a group with the Bird Diva!  https://twitter.com/vtkindergarten/status/1129013021869826048 She helped us ID a new visitor!
