Hi everyone, I am a PGCE student on my first placement. We are going on a farm trip next week so I am doing the input on Monday. My idea was to sing old macdonald as a starter. Then through looking at PP pictures have a child led discussion on what they see e.g. what they look like, fur, no fur, what the feet look like, how baby feed of their parents, how many legs, etc. Aim to then ask the children what they want to learn about farms. Use talk partners and then write down questions on paper as they say them. For group activity after i then though we could draw a picture of a farm and write down our questions.

I've been looking for a new farm set. It must be wooden and very sturdy.
