Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Record observations of incubating eggs over time
  • Compare oviparous animals with animals born live
  • Label the parts inside a chicken egg

Teaching tips

  • Several pages depend on watching real eggs in a classroom incubator, so the journal works best alongside a live hatching project.
