The Farm Unit

We have finish up week one of two weeks of our Farm Unit.  

Last week we learned about the types of animals that are typically found on a farm.  The kids had fun making all kinds of farm animal sounds and learning the names of the baby farm animals.  We created paper plate pigs using different sized circles, triangles and rectangles.  We discovered what happens to a color when white is added to it the colors get mixed together.  Everyone also learned how to use a glue stick (the week before we learned how to make dots of glue using the glue bottles and we learned how to cut with scissors - "open, shut, open, shut, this is the way we cut!")

This next week, Farmer Fry will be bringing a petting zoo of farm animals for us to pet!  We will be talking about the types of things farmers grow.  Using different types of vegetables, we will make vegetable print patterns!  Please have fun talking to your child about farms and when you go to the grocery store, be sure to point out things that was grown on a farm :)
