Hatch Vocabulary


 Today was the first day of our chick hatching unit. We talked about important vocabulary words that we will hear throughout the next month. Here are the words we learned: Egg tooth, embryo, hatch, yolk, and down. Scroll through our pictures to learn the meanings of each word.
Working hard on my vocabulary book!




Hatch: To break out of an egg


Eggtooth: A little point on the tip of a chick's beak that helps it to break the shell of its egg. 

Embryo: The first stage in the growth of the chicken inside the egg. 

Down: The feathers that cover the chick's body. 


Our vocabulary books are hanging in the hallway. If you're around Room 4, stop by to check them out. Stay tuned for our post tomorrow about our chick helper job in the classroom.
