Farm Animals Unit

Farm Animals Unit

The Farm Animals Unit is my personal favorite. There is something about a farm that draws kids of all ages. I would encourage you to take a field trip to a local farm if possible. This is the best way for kids to see first hand how amazing these animals are. In this unit, you will find slideshows, emergent readers, a farm animals pack, videos, and more!

Where does wool come from? YouTube Video

Watching this video by Noal Farm was a real treat! They prefer you view the film on YouTube, so find it here. It was so cool to see the entire process from shearing a sheep all the way to a wool product ready for purchase at the store.

Charlie Needs a Cloak is an awesome book to accompany this lesson. It follows a shepherd who shears his sheep, prepares the wool, dyes it, and makes his very own cloak. This book provides tons of educational information without seeming like a science book. It is a story that reveals the steps needed for Charlie to make his own cloak. Enjoy!

Positional Words Activity Sheet

The positional words activity sheet is a fun way to practice language skills. It is a fun way to reiterate what the positional words, in, on, in front of, right, and left mean. 

Positional Words

First, the child will cut along the dotted line separating the barn from the rest of the sheet. Then the child will cut out the chickens and place them where they belong based on the instructions. You may need to help your child read the instructions. DOWNLOAD HERE. Happy learning!
