Eggs-traordinary Eggs!



Several weeks ago, we had a lot of fun learning about oviparous animals. We read many books and watched a great episode of "Reading Rainbow" called "Chickens Aren't the Only Ones". Then we made our own list of Oviparous Animals.

The children worked really hard with Mrs. B making the eggs you see in the photo. They had to decorate the shells, draw an oviparous animal inside, and then write a sentence about the animal they chose.

Of course we all made TLC Humpty Dumptys, added the rhyme to our poetry books, and had a great time doing "Hip Hop Humpty Dumpty" along with one of our music cd's.




We are still working on our farm unit and are very excited about our trip to Vend-a-Moo that is coming up. I hope to post some pictures of the farm things we have been doing soon. Things have been really busy around my house lately and I have neglected the blog.
