Chicken Life Cycle Science and Literacy Activities

This is a great spring unit packed with fun information and activities on the theme of the Chicken Life Cycle. This resource can be used effectively to teach about the chicken’s life cycle even if you do not hatch chicks.

Here is what one teacher said about this unit:

Wonderful resource! Very thorough, and creative. I love how it incorporates cross curricular subjects (science, art, and English, oh my!)

If you have never hatched chicks in your classroom before I hope you will give it a try! Your students will LOVE every minute of it! And it will make all the work and planning you do so worth it as you watch your students filled with wonder. You will also see them come back year-after-year and tell you that hatching chicks was their favorite activity!
