We Have Chicks!!!

We came in from the long weekend to discover that the chicks had already begun hatching! What a surprise. By now we've moved most of the chicks from the incubator to a large cardboard box with a heating lamp and sawdust. We will spend a few more days with the chicks, and when they're big enough we'll hand them off to Lisa DeWitt, a teacher in first grade.

Just hatching!

Still in the incubator.

Life in the box.

Kindergartners did a fabulous job on their body presentation and body songs on Friday! Our hope is for all parents to have a copy of the presentation by the end of the year. Would anyone be willing to donate 20 or so blank DVDs for this project?

Field Day is tomorrow, June 3rd. Please send in sneakers. Hats and sunscreen are a must. Water bottles would be nice, and bathing suits are optional. (Clothes are a must!)

Sadly we were not able to reschedule our Eric Carle Museum field trip. But the good news is, we've planned a different field trip in its place! On Friday June 11 we're planning a trip to the Mill River recreation area in Amherst. We welcome parent chaperones and snacks to share. Thank you!
