The Chicks Arrive!

Last Thursday night, 4 of our baby chicks hatched. This week, we learned about animal characteristics, animal coverings, and animal needs.





Ladybug Beetles

Our ladybugs came today. We talked about what ladybugs need and how they grow and change. Then we wrote about them in our journal.



Today, we released our ladybugs back into the outdoors. We had lots of fun holding them in our hands and letting them crawl on our arms and legs.




We kept the ladybugs for about two weeks. During that time, we learned about living and non-living, characteristics of ladybugs, and the ladybug lifecycle.
