My students need an incubator to help them experience the wonders of nature and watch the transformation from egg to chick.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My school is a Title I school that serves students that face many social challenges. In spite of the struggles that they have, the are wonderful people who have so much to offer the world. They love science and I want to provide them opportunities that they may not otherwise receive. Having the ability to watch and inquire about how and why things work the way they do provides even those students who struggle to read the ability to participate in their own learning. In many ways, science levels the academic playing field and shows students that they can be successful.
I love my students and want to give them every opportunity to rise above their challenges and achieve things that will surprise even them.
My Project
An egg incubator will give students a real-life opportunity to experience the wonders of nature in ways that are concrete and measurable, and otherwise unavailable to most. With an egg incubator, students will observe the transformation from egg to chick while observing and recording details along the way.
Students will learn the importance of taking care of the fragile nature of our environment and the complexity of this process of transformation.
This machine will give students a much deeper understanding of the transformation from egg to chick than simply reading about it. We will use it to encourage the scientific inquiry process.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
