We are hatching in the library at Ivan Green! Students spend this last week learning about the life cycle of chickens and exploring our 12 chicken eggs in our incubator. Students learned that our incubator needs to be 100 degrees and the eggs will be inside for 21 days. We are keeping track of their growth on a chart in the library. We discovered that on Day 7, the chicks grew their egg tooth which will help them hatch. This egg tooth then falls off days after they are born. We are really excited about meeting our chicks!!! #IGAchieves







This week was marked by sunny days that quickly turned cloudy, like this picture!

This week's #TeamAprreciationTuesday goes to Gretchen Vandermortel, IG Special Education Teacher. "Gretchen has such patience and grace in her role as an educator, team leader, and friend. She makes great connections and builds relationships with students and adults she works with. This openness allows others to easily gravitate toward her when in need. She is always brainstorming a solution to questions, challenges, and always puts students first." - Principal Lucas Hiley & Team #LancerLove
