It's almost that time...

Today we made announcements about the arrival of our chicks...don't get too excited though, they aren't here yet! We just wanted to have all of our signs ready so that when they do hatch, we can hang the signs up around the school so everyone knows to come visit. We had a lot of fun using our creativity - even the teachers made signs! Check out our pictures below and remember...if you see these signs hanging up that means our chicks have hatched!
