My Project

Every year my 2nd grade students study life cycles. We study the life cycle of chickens, frogs, and butterflies. I need these supplies in order for the students to get to experience the life cycles of the butterfly and chicken in our classroom. The chickens will stay in my classroom for several days before they move back to the farm. During this time the chickens will need food, a heat lamp, and bedding. This is a great learning opportunity for the students to learn about the life cycle of a chicken. Thank you for supporting this hands on learning experience for my 2nd grade students for many years to come.
