Their excitement and anticipation grew day by day as we waited together to meet our new friends. Their anticipation turned to instant love as we watched our newly hatched friends grow and change. We took dozens of pictures and videos of each first grader holding the chicks. We voted on names for each chick and the winners were: Toasty, Sunny, Lovee, Mimi, Cookie, and Jelly. It was truly an experience to remember. \r\n\r\nWe learned some valuable lessons to help smooth out the process for next year, such as... baby chicks eat a TON so buy more chick feed next time! \r\n\r\nThanks again for your help with making this experience come to life for my students!","fullyFundedDate":1742946928032,"projectUrl":"project/whats-in-that-egg-1st-grade-is-hatchi/9180012/","projectTitle":"What's In That Egg? 1st Grade is Hatching Chicks!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Parent","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4218629_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1485657316031","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsparent"},{"teacherId":4218629,"projectId":8811068,"letterContent":"Our leopard gecko, Navy, is loving his new and improved home!
