EXTRAORDINARY EGGS

We had some "EGG"citing fun before SPRING BREAK!!!

We read plenty of books about beautiful Easter eggs.  The children were introduced to other words that could mean "beautiful".

The students chose another word for "beautiful" and wrote about their egg.

We wrote riddles about oviparous animals!

Here we are waiting our turn to drop our Humpty's.

We wrote about BEFORE and AFTER our Humpty Dumpty Egg Drop.

The children picked an egg with a sound word inside.  The students used the sound words to make their mixed-up chick talk.

MIXED-UP CHICKS

We discovered eggs!

We are soaking a raw and boiled egg in vinegar.  What will happen?!

 MORE FUN STUFF!
Jelly Bean Math

Adding a dot pattern border to the egg carton label for the egg hunt.  Each student brings in a dozen eggs in a carton.  The children decorate the label for their carton.  At the egg hunt, each child finds a dozen eggs for their carton.
 
The students had fun asking 10 friends if they liked eggs?   The survey questions were completed by reading the data collected. 

Look at these cute bunny cupcakes!

Big basket of Cheeto carrots!

We followed directions to dye eggs.
