Good news travels fast and we have heaps of good news in Grade 1! This week we experienced God's incredible new life first hand as we watched chicks hatch before our eyes!
A dozen tiny little babies arrived throughout this week!
We could not wait to give the chicks many gentle cuddles. The boys and girls learned they needed to sit while holding a chick, and to keep a hand under their feet as well as lightly on their back.
While some students spent time taking in the new life, others tackled the illustrations for a rhyming booklet called "5 Little Chicks". The chicks in our illustrations are made from torn construction paper.
Mrs. Beliveau and her brood are keeping careful watch this weekend over the new little life! As a class, we'll be caring for these beautiful chicks until Tuesday, when Mrs. Junck returns.
It has been an AMAZING few weeks filled with loads of valuable science and language arts lessons. More importantly, however, are the lessons we have learned about new life, respect, patience, and compassion. God's work is truly amazing!
Thank you, God, for blessing us with this experience! We are in truly in awe of your amazing work and beautiful creations!
