Today for Preschool, and Checking our Chicks

We are talking about roots, flowers, and seeds.  We did an experiment with celery stalks and put them in blue water to see how they drink up the water.  They are like little straws and the flowers roots do the same thing in the soil.  We made cute flowers with roots, and colored yellow flowers and wrote the letter Yy.

We candled our eggs and found that 11 of our 12 eggs have chicks growing in them!  We know they all won’t hatch, but we are excited!  Today we made predictions on our eggs and what will come out and the color of the chicks.  Here are our results:  Scarlett said the green ones will have black, the white one, yellow, and the brown ones might have brown?  Ella said the green ones will have blue- the white, yellow-and the brown, red.  Avery said the green, pink-the white, white- and the brown, brown chicks.  Liam said the chicks will be blue and purple.  Blake said the green, orange- the white one will have a bunny!- the brown one will have a cow!  We will see who is right and what comes out of our eggs!  We cracked open the only egg that wasn’t even fertilized, so there wasn’t a chick.  Whew!  I’d hate to make a mistake, but it’s pretty obvious when you candle it, that there isn’t a chick at all!  Check out or chick pics!
