Chicks

After many attempts, my fourth grade class successfully hatched three eggs!  To say my students the whole school was overjoyed is an understatement.

Last Thursday, during math class, Hershey was born.  All my math students got to see it come out of the egg and they loved it!  Shortly after Hershey was born we saw a pip in another egg, and that night came Snickerdoodle.  We were all very excited to see Snickerdoodle in the incubator the next morning.  I quickly pulled him out and within 15 minutes, Shadow made it's debut. 

Surprisingly enough, I managed to keep the chirping fluff balls as an incentive for good behavior.  It has been pretty successful so far.  On Friday they will go back to the farm, and Mrs. C will end her chore of cleaning the poop twice a day.  Yeah!  

Now that the new additions to the classroom have made their school debut, it's time for them to hit the web.  Enjoy!
