What an exciting week it has been!

This week we have had some new friends come to join us in Class 2....
We had some eggs arrive on Monday and we eagerly watched and waited - and on Wednesday morning we came in to a lovely surprise of a baby chick that had hatched overnight!

This was quickly followed by 3 more that day and then we found another 3 had hatched when we arrived on Thursday morning!

We have had a lovely few days watching them grow and run around the cage - they are starting to develop their own little personalities now, so we have begun to think about names. So far we have decided on 'Flappy', 'Chickaboo' and 'Tiny'.

  
More excitement was had on Thursday afternoon - Iris and her Granny very kindly brought in her baby quails for us to see and stroke - we thought they were very sweet and were much smaller than our chicks!

We have been writing our own 'Chick Diaries' all week and we have had some amazing writing from this! Next week we will be continuing this by thinking about writing instructions and tips about how to hatch and take care of chicks.


Joshua was in the Golden Book this week for really working hard and remembering and applying what he has been learning - especially in phonics! Well done!
