I hope you all had a wonderful spring break if you were able to take one! I had so much fun at Siesta Key, Florida with my daughter! I had fun finding seashells for the kids! They will get them tomorrow!
This next couple of weeks we will be learning about different maps for social studies. Today, I sent home a bedroom map example on one side and directions for making their own bedroom map on the other side. Please follow the example. Help your child look at their bedroom and draw the objects in the spot they are in on the blank square. I'd like them to color it close to the colors in their room. Using a ruler or straight edge of some sort will help keep it neat. Don't forget to add the directions on the compass rose too for the direction their room is facing. After drawing the objects, your child needs to draw mini pics of the objects and label what they are in the Map Symbol Key! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Some children did this same lesson in KDG, so it may come back to them and what they did!

We have chick eggs!
I am so excited to share with you that we are going to learn about how chicks grow in an incubator! We have 6 chick eggs. The only blueish-green egg is an Araucana chick egg. Four are brown and one is tan. We can't wait to find out what color they all will be! Mrs. Scott just put them in the incubator before school today. We learned what all is in the chick egg, drew and labeled a picture on our flip chart. It takes 21 days or more for the chicks to hatch! I bet some of you remember the videos from Farmer Casper last spring. They will start hatching the week of April 19th! Hopefully we get a good hatch!
