Kellogg’s innovative teaching idea, “Sunny Side Up Chickens,” is focused on expanding a current project dedicated to raising chickens in the school’s chicken coop. This program is based off of FARE (Food, Agriculture, Renewable Resources and Environment) curriculum. Previously, students in Kellogg’s class nurtured and watched chickens hatch from eggs, and are now tasked with taking care, and maintaining upkeep, of the chickens and the coop outside. In addition to learning responsibility through these chores, students also gather eggs and sell them to buy food and other supplies for their chickens – teaching them the value of hard work. Kellogg is passionate about extending this program to provide additional learning opportunities; a larger covered area outside to host projects, and greater resources, so that students are exposed to an even more valuable experience.
