Subcontract is a theme that students (and teachers) always honey because in that location are so many footling topics to expand upon. Kids love incorporating things such as tractors, planting veggies and fruits, farm animals, animate being life cycles, and establish life cycles. There are so many fun themed subcontract activities that I broke it upwardly into three posts: Farm Math, Literacy, & Stem (this 1), Farm Art, Sensory, & Fine Motor, and Farm Dramatic Play. Yous can bank check out all my Farm items in my TPT shop HERE.

I also fabricated a ton of FARM FREEBIES for you! CLICK Here to catch them!

Farm Scientific discipline

Ane of the starting time activities we did was to establish veggie seeds during recess! I pulled a few students at a time, and they planted veggie seeds in a clear plastic loving cup (shoveled dirt in the cup, sprinkled the seeds in the dirt, covered them with dirt, sprayed with water, and one friend made the found stick). We brought them into the classroom to notice them grow in the classroom over the next few weeks. I like using clear cups so we can meet the roots growing under the soil.

In the science middle, I brought in Real veggies and seeds for students to touch, experience, olfactory property, measure and explore. Often kids don't run across or touch the veggies BEFORE they are cut upwardly and cooked. Or maybe they're a picky eater and just don't eat many veggies.
Then I added a few books about the life cycle of veggie and constitute. Yous can grab the life cycle of a found chart freebie Here.

Take the learning deeper and investigate where the plants and veggies grow (above or below the ground)! Examine each one to see what part of the plant they are …. seed, stem, flower, or the root! Y'all tin can take hold of all of these printables in my All About Plants Science Unit!

Farm Stem

In the blocks center, I added farm themed Stalk I Can Build posters to inspire students to build and engineer new things related to a subcontract. Then I added farm props like veggie counters, small tractors, farm books and farm animals.

To accept their engineering and math to the next level, nosotros posted a edifice challenge: Can you Build a Tall Barn? This affiche is in the farm freebie pack at the top of this post. Students measure their farm with a cord a record it to the poster so they can compare the heights of each other's barn.

Farm Math

There are so many places on a farm making it the perfect opportunity to make a MAP! Using the farm map central, students depict a map of their own imaginary farm with paths connecting the places together. It'southward a fun mode to build spacial recognition concepts and skills.

Farm Number Lines! This game has two levels to make information technology easy to differentiate. Level 1 has students trace the numbers and level two has students fill in the missing number.

Mensurate veggies (or fruit) with bean rulers or connecting cubes. Students mensurate each veggie and tape the upshot on their clipboard for a fun fashion to explore non-standard measurement. Read how to make your own DIY edible bean rulers Hither.

If you live in the state, your students may go to real tractor races (aka tractor pulls) at county fairs over the summer. I thought information technology would be fun to brand a Tractor Race Counting Game! Roll a die and dot the respective amount with dot markers. With this game, y'all tin can use 1 or two dice. If you use two dice, there is also a board to 50 for your higher level learners!

Farm Literacy

My students went bonkers for the Click, Clack Moo book series by Doreen Cronin! The first day we read Click, Clack Moo Cows that Blazon, Giggle, Giggle Quack the second day, Click, Clack, Peep on the third twenty-four hours and simply kept going from there.

I LOVE these books considering the animals and farmer WRITE letters to each other which leads to tons of fun writing activities in the classroom!

The kids LOVED typing letters but like the cows for pocket-sized group and at the writing tabular array. The design for the type letters is in the FREEBIE! Only print the letters on colored paper and cut upward (both uppercase and lowercase are included). Use for word piece of work with older students or write names with younger students.

Some other day students wrote friendly letters to their families on farm paper simply like the duck does in the book! It's so important for students to have existent, authentic reasons to write! (This paper is likewise included in the farm freebie.)

Now that students are EXCITED to write, fill the writing center with Click, Clack, Moo type letters, friendly farm letter paper, subcontract discussion cards (in uppercase for my 3-4 twelvemonth quondam friends and in lowercase for my pre-g friends), markers, pencils and more farm paper. Your students will WANT to write after reading the Click, Ballyhoo Moo serial!

To go on the word building going, build pupil names with Farm Read Build Write! Students selection a name (read each alphabetic character too), build information technology with magnet letters and write it at the lesser. Utilize this game to teach first or terminal names.

Students pick a word (read each letter in the discussion), build it with magnet messages and write it at the bottom. Utilize this game for sight words or themed vocabulary words.

Practice start sounds with Farm Beginning Sound Puzzles. Students place the outset sound and detect the matching letter of the alphabet. Then fun!

I hope you lot love the fun farm activities I have suggested! If you need Subcontract Sensory, Art, and Fine Motor, Farm Dramatic Play or a Farm Booklist, simply click the photo beneath!
