School project

[pbjmaker]

Hi - I am working on a project for school (getting my teaching degree- almost done) and for one class I have to create an alphabet book. OF COURSE mine is going to be chicken themed!

Problem - I need words for the letters "K", "Q" and "X"

Preferably something I can catch in a picture

Thanks for the help!

Kite...with a chicken
Queen...holding an egg or chick with the crown...it's the queen.
X....box with eggs inside...

I know...kinda dull, but will keep thinking...

Someone had a really cute photoshopped pic of a chick w/ a crown...that could be the queen.

The words need to be ones that can go with a unit I do on hatching eggs for city kids who migt know nothing about chickens.

Might do the box - that would work well.

Thanks for helping me out here.

A Quill is a feather....?

 

[pbjmaker]

awsome - that is a great idea! I had feather as one of my "f" words but I could focus on the actual "quill" part!

What do you guys think of zygote for "z"?

NONO NO! Quail for Q! its pretty close around poultry!


Kluck- a sound a chicken makes


koo koo kachoo! - a sound bill cosby makes.

I always spelled it "cluck" hmmmmm let me check into that.

"Cluck" is spelled with a "c" (English teacher here...).

What grade level is the book supposed to be for? "Zygote" might be a bit much for, say, lower el...

X = nestboX

K = pecKing order, hacKles, sicKles

Q = Quill (I second that suggestion...)

What about K - Key West chickens. Bet they don't know there are wild chickens in the United States! I didn't know until I started coming here.
