Help Us Scope Out a Chicken Embryo

Help me give my students the opportunity to view our eggs during the developmental process, so they can understand the life cycle of a chicken better.

My Project

In 3rd grade, we hatch chicks to allow our students to experience the entire life cycle of a bird. During the incubation period, students study the day to day development of the embryo. This helps build their excitement for hatching day. In order to make this experience more successful, we are wishing for a scope to make this experience more successful. Candles and flashlights shed some light, but often do not make it easy for all students to be able to see. This scope would be perfect and ensure that all students have a positive learning experience.
