Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Using live birds, this one-time class will teach young learners the basics about chickens: where they come from, what parts they have, what they eat, what they can do. Class will be interactive with lots of questions and answers. Students will also label a chicken diagram with parts of the bird. If they like, they can also color the page.

Class will be structured as follows:
Student introductions
Parts of a chicken with live bird
Brief slide show with chicken information
Chicken part identification diagram

This class is seasonal, and will only run when live birds are available!

Younger learners (ages 3-8) will want to take the companion class, Chickens for Young Learners, linked here:

I have been raising birds for nearly a decade. The best time of year is spring, when the babies hatch! I am happy to share the joy of raising and keeping chickens with learners.
