Chicken Coop

Big A's first grade class was assigned a 'Homes' project. The assignment was to research a type of home (anything was fine as long as it was A) Not a standard house and B) Something that is real - i.e. No hollowed out trees that would be where Big Foot lives). The kids had to answer a couple of pages of questions about the type of home they chose, and then build a model of the home.

Together we decided that this project was right up Grandpa's alley, so Big A and Grandpa set out coming up with their project idea. Since we've been wanting to build a chicken coop for our property (Grandpa and Big A... WHERE IS THE CHICKEN COOP???) they decided to make a 'prototype' and use it for Big A's school assignment.

Grandma and Big A researched chicken coops online and answered all of the questions, and Grandpa and Big A built the coop. Talk about AWESOME!

Grandpa did the cutting but Big A did the measuring and marking...




And the screwing and nailing...



And they made One. Awesome. Chicken Coop.

Well done, boys... Well done!
