Description
Photograph of three students at Martin Laboratory School observing a hen in a cardboard box. Two girls stand on chairs, overlooking the hen on the table, while a boy stands at the other side of the table. This may be a form of experiential learning where children learned arithmetic from counting the number of eggs the hen laid and how many days she would sit on them. Students would also write stories about the hen and read them aloud. "M. Mcgrath" is written on the back of the photograph and may stand for Margaret Mcgrath, a Professor in Elementary Education at Eastern Washington College of Education circa 1939.
