May 23rd

Today the children explored centers, worked in letter books, observed the chicks, had snack, 3's had chapel with Miss Jordan, played outside, caught butterflies, had lunch and had a chick circle! In our chick circle we got to touch the chick's downy soft feathers and listened to two great hatching stories.
