My Project

I am requesting items that well help my class on an egg-citing journey that will allow them to see life science standards in action. My students will be able to see the specific structures that baby chickens have to help them survive and grow as they use the requested supplies to immerse themselves in chicken incubation and caring for baby chicks.

My goal for my curious and caring students is to show them critical thinking and problem solving skills that will help them throughout the process.

Students will use these newly developed skills to deepen their understanding of animal structures, functions, and adaptations. While deepening their understanding, they of life science standards, they will have an opportunity for hands on learning that will teach them empathy and team work skills.
