Chicks!
The chicks arrived right on schedule in the third grade classes. With the use of some new technology the students were able to watch as some of the chicks hatched making their way out of their shells using their egg tooth while still in the incubator. In the following weeks the students enjoyed watching the chicks in the brooder box. Before the chicks went to their permanent home the students got the chance to observe some of their behaviors as the chicks were allowed to spend some time in the classroom.
