Children have a natural sense of curiosity about living things in the world around them. Building on this curiosity, students from both Pathfinder and Daisy Brook Elementary Schools of Fremont and along with community members of the Holton Library (Branch of Muskegon Area District Library) participated in the Michigan 4-H Embryology program learning about embryonic development and life cycle during the 21-day incubation process of chicken eggs. 4-H volunteer, Kathy Alford worked with Kristen Christoffersen, 1rst grade teacher from Pathfinder Elementary, Christina Mazeikis, Library Administrator from Daisy Brook Elementary, and new this year, Julie Vanderboegh, Library Assistant of Holton Library to bring the Michigan 4-H Embryology Program to the schools. As a result, nearly 700 students from both schools and 75 people from the Holton Library learned about the developmental stages of chickens, observed the eggs, and witnessed the hatching process. The 4-H Embryology program was made possible by a grant from the Michigan 4-H Foundation.
