So today I put a box on the classroom floor and asked my class what questions they might have about the box and what might be in it. Some great questions were posed, then when the children realised I wasn't going to answer their questions, they began to find clues on the box as to what it might be. Before long they had discovered that inside the box was a chicken egg incubator.
My next question was - what will we do with it? After some more conversation the class decided that we should get some eggs (fertilised of course as someone pointed out) and see if we could hatch them. Then we'd need a cage to put the chickens in. So the first task the children have undertaken is to try and find some eggs. The children came up with some ways to find eggs so we'll wait and see how they go......
