| Impact Report | 2011 Egg to Chick Agent conducted the egg-to-chick school enrichment programming in four school room classes this month. Agent directly reached approximately 67 youth, and indirectly reached many others. The five classrooms were in four different schools throughout the county. In the five classrooms the classes that were doing the egg-to-chick program hosted most of the other classes in the school to talk to them about the project. One class even broke into pairs and presented power-point presentations to the other classes in the school, so many more youth were reached indirectly. Agent spent approximately two hours with the each class on the first visit, where he presented the material. Then on the 10th day agent spent one hour with each class candling the eggs to determine if they were developing. Besides the occasional visits to check or help adjust the incubators, agent did not go back until the chicks started hatching. Agent would check on the hatching chicks and was also there for most of the classes presentations to other classes. The youth gained knowledge related to embryology, incubation, and care of an animal. Youth learned life skills related to record keeping, responsibility, disease prevention, and critical thinking. On the evaluation the question was asked “what did you learn from this program?”, each youth listed at least one thing. |
