Our chicken eggs should hatch March 11.

| Second graders discover that hard-boiled eggs spin quite nicely. |
EGGS EGGS EGGS!
This week, most classes investigated the structure of the chicken egg. Yolk, egg spot, membranes. Albumen (did you know there was a thick and thin egg white?)
Holes in the eggshell for the developing embryo to breath. Egg shapes differ depending on the environment of the nest; seabird eggs are pointy so they will roll in a circle and not roll off a cliff.

| And some first-graders definately were. |
