New Toy in Room 2!

We have a new Smart Board in Room 2. It is taking some getting used to, but we are slowly adjusting. The kids are having a fabulous time learning all of the new things we can do with it.

Dairy Week Wrap Up

We finished Dairy Week with some activities in the classroom. We made cows out of paper plates and did a dairy search and find.

Dairy Farm Field Trip

The third day of Dairy Week was spent visiting a dairy farm. We learned all kinds of things about the way cows are milked and fed.

We visited the milk house and saw where the milk is stored.

We saw the cows being milked.

We saw where the cows live in their barns.

We got to feel the water bed that the cows have to lay on in their barn.

The baby cows did not want to be petted, but we did get to see them.

We had a small lesson on the importance of getting three servings of dairy a day.

We finished by playing a game of dairy memory.

Ice Cream Party

Our second day of Dairy Week was celebrated by having an ice cream party. We had vanilla ice cream with all the toppings. The kids loved picking out which ones they wanted.

Dairy Week!

We have been busy at work this week to celebrate Dairy Week. We started off the week by making ice cream. The kids had a great time adding the ingredients to their bags, shaking it with ice, and then of course enjoying the ice cream they made.
