Goodbye Chicks!

Good morning everyone!

This week, we spent a few awesome, cute, and fun days with our chicks! We got to pet the chick's yellow, soft down. Some of us tried to hold the chicks, but we didn't think they liked it because they were flapping their wings and chirping loud! Also, we put the chicks on the carpet and let them run around! Then we did some sketching of the cute, fluffy chicks. On Tuesday, Farmer Mark came to take the chicks back to the farm. We miss them so much! :(

Today was Sport's Day! The theme was A Day at the Beach! 
- "My favourite part was the face painting!" -T
- "The best part was the dance party!" -K
- "I got a mustache at the face painting station!" -E
- "It was fun doing the hula hoops!" -O

Have a nice rest of your day!

Our Baby Chicks!

Happy June Everyone!

It has been a fun and happy week in Room 13. On Thursday, we got baby chicks! They are really fluffy and soft, and so cute! 

Here are some facts we have learned about the chicks:
- When you hold them you must be very gentle.
- Their bones are very fragile.
- They grow really fast!
- They will live about 8 months.
- They need heat lamp to stay warm.
- The chicks are very sensitive to noise.

We have been watching the chicks closely. Here are some of our observations.
- They poop a lot!
- They eat their food so quickly! Miss MacLeod has to refill their food dish often.
- All 4 of the chicks like to stay close to each other
- They are so messy!! They often put the shaving in their water dish!
- The chicks are very sensitive to noise.
- Their heads turn very far around.

Have a great weekend!
