During the morning work time, the Children of the Community classrooms work on their fine motor skills by shelling corn cobs to feed the chickens. The walk to the farm has a lot of fun things like : they see the leaves all over the grown, they find lovely flowers, hear the birds sing…
We try to go to the farm once a week to learn about how farm animals live. The kids learn vocabulary related to animals, what animals eat and also what they produce.
In this pictures you can see children meeting our new chicks, some of them went inside the hens cage to touch the chicks and collect some eggs, and those who didn´t enjoyed them from outside while we sang…
“ Chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken,
Lay a little egg for me!
Chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken,
I want one for my tea,
I haven’t had an egg since Easter,
And now it’s half past three,
So, chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken,
Lay a little egg for me! “
