Fun on the Farm (Freebies)

We have been getting ready for our big field trip to the farm this week. This is one of my favorite units to teach especially because right in the middle of our unit we get to go to the actual farm and milk a cow and hold ducks and explore see tractors. I've been pretty bad at remembering to take pics this week but here's a few activities we have been doing.

These pigs and cow writing craftvities came out super cute. The cow is from my friend's class, the pigs were inspired by Michelle at Apples and Abc's and her cute farm craftivities.



Next week we are going to read "The Very Busy Spider" and make these books and webs to retell the story. One of my teammates made it today and they turned out super cute!









You can grab the book here.

I made these super simple math mats out of construction paper to be mud and grass for some pig addition stories. I forgot to snap a picture during our whole group lesson but we told different story problems, modeled them and then wrote the number sentences on a white board. Then I gave the kids a barn to glue to the mat and let them make their own story and they wrote the number sentence in the barn. They went CRAZY for these and were so excited to take them home.

Click here for the file. There are also some colored pigs for you to use.  It's hard to see in the pic but I copied the kids' pigs on pink.

 Tomorrow we head to the farm!! Leave me some love if you download the files...I love to know who is using my things in their rooms :)
