The supplies that this project will be providing supports student learning by utilizing math and science in a life situation. The incubators will support students by teaching life cycles that result in the growth and development of chicks. Each student will have two opportunities at having a viable hatch. Throughout the incubation process, students will use math and science skills to regulate incubators. Students will continue to learn life skills by being responsible for caring for the chicks through the brooding process; prior to chicks being transitioned to an outdoor environment.
Learning how to adapt to growing up and having additional responsibility is much like being a chick that ends up an adult chicken. As a living creature chicks start in the embryo stage, hatch into a chick, maneuver the pullet stage, prior to ending up an adult chicken. Chickens grow so quickly that it provides an opportunity to learn about the life cycle stage on a fast track. Teaching life cycles can seem like an abstract concept, however; the egg hatching project will support hands-on learning of the life cycle stages.
