The WBP chickens are growing! We have enjoyed learning about animal life cycles, animal needs, and habitats as the chickens have moved into larger habitats in the hallway! Today about half of our chickens will be promoted to the farm! We are going to continue to see the remaining chickens grow for another week before they reunite at their permanent home on the farm.

This week we learned how archeologists help us learn about the Jamestown Settlement through digging. Students completed an archeological lesson with cookies! YUM! They recorded how many chips in each of their cookie "dig sites." And, they had a sweet time!
