CHICKS!!

We are learning The life cycle in our class and the incubator arrived just in time!!
This is the incubator with our five eggs. We learned that they need to be incubated and the most vital factor of incubation is the constant temperature required for its development. In the incubator they were at 100 degrees (more or less) and they need to be there because they didn't have their mom.
After two days (the eggs came nearly to hatch) the first egg started to move, and we saw a little hole!! It was so little, as you can see, but we were super excited.
After some hours we could see the first chick!!
And as you see in the picture some other eggs were starting to hatch!!
In just three days we had the five chicks alive!! We were super happy because last year we weren't as lucky as this year and two eggs didn't hatch... :(

Aren't they cute??
Here there is a beautiful picture of their progress...
And in the classroom we did a project I found on pinterest super fun for the students and very helpful to learn about the Life cycle...
This is the project...
And here we have some students working on it...




Super fun!!!

    We've hatched chicks (and other eggs - ducks last year and quail this year) for the last 3 years. It is SO much fun and the kids love it! Yours are super cute!

IV Intercambio Navideño

  ¡Volvemos con el IV Intercambio Navideño entre clases españolas! Este año adelantamos las fechas bastante para que haya tiempo para cuarentenas de cartas y de personas :P .  ¿En qué consiste el intercambio? En los mayores (de 3º a 6º) la idea sería que los alumnos escribieran una carta/postal a un compañero del otro cole contando su experiencia navideña (qué es lo más característico de su ciudad, qué tiempo hace, que suelen hacer ellos en estas fechas…) y adjuntar también una manualidad realizada con papel para que se pueda colgar en el árbol de Navidad o decorar en su habitación...   LEED BIEN TODO, por favor.   Estos son los pasos a seguir:   Antes de nada: Apúntate SOLAMENTE si piensas participar. ¡No queremos que nadie se quede sin pareja en mitad del intercambio!   Rellenar este formulario de Google, este es el link: https://forms.gle/SfCVCz1muhuaDEjW8 Podéis participar con vuestros datos HASTA EL 25 DE OCTUBRE POR LA NOCHE.     PARA NIÑOS DESDE 2 AÑOS HASTA 2º de primaria os p

FALLAS PROJECT... Celebration in Valencia (Spain) brought to UTAH!!

Image
We have been busy working on this project... Fallas is a traditional celebration held in commemoration of St. Joseph in Valencia, Spain. It is celebrated from the 15th to the 19th of March every year. The term "Fallas" or in our local language "Falles" refers to both the celebration and the monuments created to be exposed and finally burned during this celebration. There are a lot of traditions that I wanted to share with my first graders but I just shared the most important ones... In the school we started searching about it and watching and printing photos of the most important customs and we did a big poster with pictures showing great moments. We colored one typical dress and we glued a photo of our face on it... So cute! After that we made "petardos" (Firecrackers) and we hanged them around the classroom. Of course we did our monument, our falla, on a paper and we added some tissue paper to simulate they were on fire!!
