Egg Day!

Dear First Graders,

     Today we got to celebrate our friend's 7th birthday with some yummy cupcakes!

    It was also EGG day! You did a great job observing our 18 eggs.

    Don't be late tomorrow, since we will put the eggs into the incubator first thing! On Friday, we learned all about how to incubator keeps the eggs warm and the different parts. I still can't believe no one would volunteer to sit on the eggs for the next 21 days straight?!?! 



We noticed that our eggs were different sizes.   That got some of us wondering... do little chicks hatch from little eggs? Are the chicks that hatch from he bigger eggs the biggest chicks? 

 We also noticed all the different colors! 
 Boy do we think like scientists... and we kept on wondering! Do certain color eggs hatch certain kinds of chicks? Does a chicken lay all different color eggs or just one color? Why are chicken eggs different colors? 



   Keep up the great reading. This weekend, we read more than 350 minutes as a class. WOW!! I've been very impressed with how some of us are building our stamina to read for longer periods of time. Our bus is nearing the finish line!

Bear Hugs,
