Incubation

Mrs. Sian got some eggs from Mrs. Agle (a farwell teacher)and Mrs. Keyser brought some eggs in from the Cover family. They brought them to school today and we put them in the incubator today. Mrs. Sian kept some of the eggs for the incubator at her house. Hopefully, between the 2 incubators, we will get some to hatch.
We made a calendar and marked 21 days. The eggs should hatch around May 4th. We also numbered the eggs and filled out a chart with information about size, color and which incubator they were put in. We are going to keep lots of data.
We watched a magic schoolbus video about eggs and filled in information that was missing on our circle map. We are learning a lot about chickens!
