knowledge or a large budget. The Classroom Pack provides
all the equipment you will need (including full operating
& troubleshooting instructions) and a detailed Lesson
Plan manual supplied on CD-ROM.
The
'Egg Story' Lesson Plan
A
50-page color manual has been designed to simplify the
educator's task. Crammed with fun hands-on activities
and color photographs of developing embryos it is great
for creating students interest and a comprehensive source
of information for the teacher. The perfect companion
of a hands-on experience of incubation
"The
Egg Story" manual shows how an egg is formed, what its
different parts and functions are and how a chick embryo
develops and hatches. It also gives an insight into
particular biological topics such as blood circulation,
respiration and how bones are different in birds. Students
will develop observation and record keeping skills,
make and use measurements. They will acquire biological
vocabulary and an understanding of physical development,
structure and function of the body.
Further
useful resources have been included at the end of the
manual to consolidate the embryology project but also
enhance programs in nutrition and mathematics for instance.
Particularly suited to middle school science projects,
the lesson plans are flexible and can easily be tailored
to younger students needs.
