An egg has hatched!  We have one baby chick in our classroom so far.  The chick is curious, playful and loud!

When the chick hatched in the incubator, it was wet and exhausted from pecking through the shell.  We put it in a habitat under a heat lamp, and in a few hours, the chick was dry and sleeping.  By the afternoon, it  was running around and peeping. Wow! 

We have learned that the chicks need food, water, shelter and space in order to survive.  We look forward to caring for them.

These are some of the lovely directed drawings the children did of Chinese dragons.

To all the families that are celebrating Chinese New Year, I wish you good health, and peace wherever you go.  May your whole family be filled with happiness in the coming year!

It Is Fall

| Leave a comment

The children have been learning all about the fall season.  This is what we know;

  • the days are growing shorter
  • the leaves change colour and fall to the ground
  • animals store food for the winter
  • some animals migrate or hibernate
  • it gets colder and rains a lot
  • it is harvest time (fruits and vegetables are ripe and ready to pick)

We created these fall scenes using loose parts.
