Farm Day

 

Farm Day at APS

 

 

 

What a great time we had learning about all the farm animals! 

 

 

This sheep was very soft.

 

 

We loved watching the baby piglets sleeping in the sun.

 

 

We found out this big bull is only 2 years old....

 



and this goat is still a baby.

 

 

We practiced our tractor driving skills!

 

 

We took turns milking a cow!

 

 

This donkey was making a lot of noise!

 

 

We all wanted to pet the horse.

 

 

 

We liked this fancy-looking chicken!

We all got to pet baby chicks.

 

 

We had a great day at the farm! 

Thank you Albertville FFA for bringing Farm Day to APS!

Watermelon Fun!

We had a blast learning with watermelons last week. Check out our pictures!

Here we are eating yummy watermelon!

 

Sweet kids!

 

We loved the watermelon so much that most of us ate seconds and thirds!

Not only did we enjoy eating the watermelon, we also saved the seeds to use with math. Here we are cleaning the seeds and setting them out to dry. 

Next we counted all the seeds together and discovered that we had over 300 seeds!

 

While the seeds were drying, we painted watermelon slices. When everything was dry, we used the seeds to count and create math problems. 

 

We're hard at work!

 

 After creating addition sentences, we glued the seeds on the watermelon slices

 to represent our problems.

 

The end result: A yummy learning experience for all!!!
