TEACHING GUIDE

Life on the Farm

This unit focuses on what life is like on the farm for both animals and farmers. It threads many thematic ideas touched upon previously. Children learn that farm animals eat, sleep, and move in different ways. They compare baby farm animals to grown farm animals and learn that one characteristic of living things is growth. Children look at how a farm is a home for many animals, and they explore different buildings found on a farm.
