Celebrating the Completion of Our Farm Animal Projects




Friday afternoon was amazing! The children proudly shared with their parents the information they had learned about the farm animals they had chosen to study. Did you know:

The father cow is called a bull.
The wool sheared off the sheep is made into sweaters.
Farm cats can run fast so they can catch mice.
Farm dogs help protect the other farm animals.
The rooster crows in the morning and wakes up the farmer.
When a horse runs fast, it is called a gallop.

Some children made teaching posters to demonstrate information about their farm animals. Others decided to make a puppet or a mobile. All the props were colorful and well done.

It was exciting to have our second grade buddy class join us for our celebration, too. They arrived with questionnaires on clipboards to interview the kindergarten children regarding their farm animal reports. What a full house we had! Our group of visitors also included Dr. Bianco, lower division head, and Ms. Feierce, our guidance counselor. The class was thrilled to be able to share their reports with so many people. Many thanks to all of our visitors who had so many compliments to the children about their great efforts on their farm animal reports.
