Chick Farewell

Friday was our final day with the chicks and we ended the day with a send-off celebration! Many family members came to meet the chicks and see how much they had grown. We made chick crafts and put down newspaper on the floor to let a few of the chicks out to visit! Over the five days since the chicks hatched they have gone through many changes! They are bigger, louder, and faster! On Friday we noticed them running and flapping their wings, trying to fly. Many had also lost their egg tooth and started to grow adult wing feathers! They are able to do many things on their own and ready to head home. After school on Friday Mrs. Sorenson brought all of the first grade chicks to the farm at UVM (where the eggs originally came from) where they have more room to grow. What a fun time we all had learning about them here at school!
