As part of the embryology project with the NE Extension, the Intro to Ag, Biology, 3rd and 4th grade incubated eggs. The students have learned about hen reproduction, the parts of an egg, incubation requirements, egg candling, poultry genetics, and caring for chicks. Students monitored and recorded the temperature and humidity daily.

Thank you McPherson County Freshmen class for hosting the Easter Egg hunt. It was fun!
Kate Marshall and Amber Willard with the NE 4-H Extension spoke to the Introduction to AFNR and Biology classes about Embryology. Students dissected identified and described the parts of an egg using technical terminology. Then we set eggs in the incubator to monitor and hatch.
JH Quiz Bowl competed at the ESU 16 competition! They competed well and had some very close matches ending with a 2-2 record. Not the ending they had hoped for but I’m very proud of them!
The 3/4 put on a play for K-6. It was about a folk tale legend Febold Feboldson that was created by Wayne Carroll. His stories were published in Gothenburg newspapers between 1923-1933. Febold used clever thinking to solve problems and in this story he thought up a way to get rain.
