Teacher Guide for Hatching

Classroom Hatching is an egg incubation program for youth in Kindergarten through third grade. This program aims to explore the lifecycle of poultry and learn about the needs of living things by incubating and hatching chicken eggs. The activities included in the program will help youth understand where food comes from, develop healthy choices, and the responsibility of caring for living things.

This program is meant to be delivered in partnership with local Iowa State University Extension and Outreach staff, the school, and community partners. There are several components to the program, including kit assembly, delivery of four classroom visits, daily incubator checks, student workbook activities, and the relocation of the hatched chicks to a suitable farm.
