Spring fever has hit Grade 1 and ducklings are on the horizon! Our hatching journey has begun!
This morning we reflected on what we already know about ducklings. Here are a few of the students' comments:
"They come from an egg."
"They like to swim."
"Ducks have webbed feet."
"They can fly."
"They grow into a duck."
We also generated a list of what we wanted to find out about ducklings:
Our local farmer, Mrs. Junck, brought us 13 duck eggs and an incubator from her farm. She will be visiting us weekly to teach us about new life, rural communities, needs of living things, and so much more!
Our eggs don't come with a mama duck, so the incubator will act in her place. It will keep the eggs warm and moist, and will turn them twice a day. Our job is to carefully monitor the incubator's temperature and humidity.
Near the end of April and into May, we will be welcoming our ducklings! We are about to experience God's new life, right before our very eyes!
