Science Is ALIVE! Baby Chicks Birthed At PHS
In late March, Mr. Jeffers and Mrs. Edmonds’ Biology classes at Pennsauken High School placed 24 chicken eggs in an incubator in hopes that they would hatch 21 days later. During this time, students gained knowledge on the reproduction and life cycle of chickens. The classes used internet research tools to follow the characteristics of the embryos as they developed inside the eggs. Students were excited to observe the different stages of growth of the 13 chicks that hatched.
