This is a great story to read to all students in order to fuel their ideas and individuality. After this I gave the students a scrap piece of paper and prompted them to create their very own invention! We talked about what an invention was and what made them unique. Then they invented new and exciting creations like time machines, cars that were also boats, new types of animals, ect. During the next class I prepared egg tracing templates for each student. When they came into the class I had them choose the color of the egg from our story out of constructions paper and then they traced and cut out their own egg. The transferred their inventions from their scratch paper to their egg. We then cut out wings, attached them to their eggs and then titled each invention on the wings of their egg.
