We are learning about FARMS at the moment, so what better way to discover a
Farm's features, than to make one ???
We started with a list of the items we would find on a farm.
We discussed the tools we had to work with ... i.e. Lego / Blocks /Toy animals / Newspaper / Cardboard / Tape etc. ... and they ways in which we should use them.
I divided the children into small groups according to their interests and they began creating their own little piece of the Farm.
|The Farmer's Dwelling|
|A place for the cows to live.|
|The Pig Sty|
We made cane as the crops.
... and several shelters for the animals ...
We then created labels for our farm so every-one could read these and know what we had made.
Ohhhh WOW! So much "learning mess"!!
