Mrs. Arnzen’s 3rd grade students took part in an egg-hatching
project. Fertilized eggs were set in a glass tank and students watched
each day as the eggs developed into chicks. The eggs were turned daily
and the temperature in the tank was kept constant. The development cycle
was part of a science project. Students adopted a chick in the process.
