HUDSON, N.Y. — Are you a teacher or club leader looking for a great hands-on science activity for your youth this spring? Well if so come explore the word of feathers! In this 90 minute teacher/leader workshop we will review some helpful hands-on curriculum provided through 4-H that reflects the importance of incubation and embryology of chicken eggs.
In the training you will be given a sample of the activities and materials that 4-H can provide for your group of youth in grades 1-4. We will then explore and discuss the world of incubation and embryology and how your club or class can be a part of the hatching madness. We will finish our time together taking a deeper look inside a developing chicken egg. So please be sure to join us at one of these following training dates.
