Some of us love the chicks so much that we canβt take our eyes off them to snap a quick picture. Students were able to observe different behaviors today & form theories about how those behaviors help the chick protect itself. #TCECardinals
Our chicks have finally started hatching! We now have 4 with one more currently hatching. Students are so excited to learn more about them. In my experience, animals in the classroom = amazing student engagement! π£ π£ π£ π£ #TCECardinals
We had a wonderful, informative visit from @AshleyHeckly today! She taught us how to stay safe in severe weather and how making a taco is like a weather watch or warning! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! @FishersFireDept#TCECardinals
New development: Venus Flytraps enjoy worms. We got to observe our plant eat its first meal in our classroom (and weβre still watching as we found out it can take weeks to digest its food). #inquiry#TCECardinals
Students are currently doing an inquiry into plants from different biomes. We also had a new species of plant join our classroom & weβre researching how to take care of it! #TCECardinals#inquiry

Today we sampled our romaine lettuce from our hydroponic garden. One student said it was the best lettuce heβs ever had! Thank you for this opportunity, @Daniel1Teach! #TCECardinals
Learned all about the engineering design process today @FishersParks during our #Agripark visit. Thank you @Daniel1Teach for providing hands-on, engaging activities for our class! The last photo happened right after we returned from our trip today.

Today we kicked off our new module by exploring traditional tales during #inquiry time. This is the first step toward creating board games based off the plot, lessons, and characters of these tales. #TCECardinals
