My Project

My current third grade students are already excited knowing that we will be hatching chicken eggs in our class this spring. We partner with The Ohio State University and Meyer Hatchery to bring this project to our classrooms.

This new incubator will allow students to clearly see the eggs and the chicks grow each day.

They will see the process of turning the eggs daily like the hen would so the chick does not stick to the egg, and also to candle the egg and see the chick growing inside.
