Hello everyone!

Today we changed the chicken mix again, and wow! I am so impressed with the kids work. They barely needed any direction as they dove into switching the salt and baking soda mix out of their chickens. They are making great observations about how the chickens are responding, such as:

• Altered skin color
• drier salt (still wet and mushy, but not as much as our first two switches!)
• size of chicken change
• feel of chicken change

Seeing them  engage in this project has been truly amazing, and I love seeing their ownership over their work.

Next class we will start to dive more into some Jewish connections to Ancient Egypt- particularly in the burial process. Moving forward, we will be working on chickens on Mondays, and spending the rest of the week on other Ancient Egyptian material.

Happy Monday!
