As part of our new topic, ‘living on a farm,’ the children watched a video of a farmer harvesting wheat. They examined some ears of wheat and looked at the grains inside. Then they used stones to crush the grains and make flour. Finally, they tasted fresh bread, poppadoms and fruit loaves, all made of flour.
We watched a video of one farmer making compost and another one planting potatoes. We then planted some potatoes ourselves in a bag.
