I showed my one science class this picture. Our custodian brought me some Cortunix eggs and they were on my desk in a coffee can 2 weeks ago. They were so excited about them and wanted me to hatch them in class but I teach Physical sciences (Chem, Physics, Adv Chem, Adv Physics, Introduction to physical science and Introduction to high school science) although I was a biology major. I would need to explain how they related to the curriculum if I did that. Well, they are due to hatch tomorrow and I told the kids that 27 out of 47 eggs went in the hatcher. They wanted to know how I knew they were good so I showed them the picture and explained the the development.
I know, not Physical Science, but it was something that interested them.
