My Very Own Farm
Scenario Activity
 
 
Imagine that you had your very own farm.  What animals would you have?  Each animal has  very special needs that must be met.  With the animals that you choose, what things would you have to do to take care of them? 

To learn about all the differnt animals on the farm, the students can visit this website.  As soon as the students find out what animals they would like to have on their farms, they can then begin to draw their pictures. 

After the children have chosen the animals they wish to have on their farms, they will need to decide what types of farm equipment they will need to take care of the animals and the crops they have. 
 
 Now, pretend you are the owner of your very own FARM, and have fun imagining all of the things you will have there!!!
