As part of science and outdoor learning, we have been collecting, describing and identifying leaves. We then used them to create our very own WILD THING from Where the Wild Things Are!! This will help us with our writing!
Day 4. Matilda wrote, "Rainbow is still in the brooder but her legs are stronger. Her plaster is not round her legs anymore! Her egg tooth will soon fall off. On Friday we will be able to hold her."
We are having such CHICK-tastic fun!!! Today we have used clay to make our own Navajo chicks!!
Day 3. Barnaby wrote, "Last night Devon and Wilson's Mum put a plaster round Rainbow's legs and now she can walk! We found out that Rainbow is a girl and she has fluffy down with a black stripe on, not a yellow dot because a yellow dot means it is a male. The other eggs have not pipped yet because they are not ready to hatch. Bow is a cream legbar chick. I wonder why she is called a cream legbar?" Great question Barnaby - we shall find out!
Jaidan wrote, "One of the eggs has hatched in the incubator. It is wet and soggy. It can't walk but we have put it in a sock - it is still cute! The colour is grey. I think it has an orange beak. It might be shy and we don't know if it is a boy or a girl so its name is Rainbow."
