Egg-celent Training!

In case you can't guess by the title it is time for our annual 4-H embryology project. Embryology is where we offer training on our second grade curriculum for teachers and supply them incubators and eggs to put in their classrooms. As the students turn the eggs, watch the temperature, and have the opportunity to see them hatch they gain knowledge about life cycles that will stay with them for life.
We will be offering two sessions of embryology this year for teachers. The first started on Monday March 8 as teachers from Union Chapel, Pembroke, Rosenwald, Rex-Rennert, Oxendine, Janie Hargrave and W. H. Knuckles elementary schools picked up their incubators. First time teachers and those looking for a refresher of the information attended a training on Monday afternoon as well. the incubators should all be plugged in and warming up getting ready for the eggs to arrive. Eggs will be arriving on Wednesday, March 10 and should start hatching the week of March 29th. Stay tuned for all the details as we start chirping about the neat things happening in our county.
