Image of seeing the development of an eggFirst: We learned how a chicken lives and develops inside an egg.   

Image of chickens hatchingThen we watched and saw how they emerged from the egg.  They have a special tooth on their beak that cracks the shell open.  After they have hatched, the tooth falls off.

Image of Baby ChicksWe learned that chickens hide from the light if they are hot. We could see that they were born with knowledge about how to eat, drink, and survive.
