Our virtual farm

Date: 14th Oct 2022 @ 8:58am

This week we ended our topic 'The Countryside' with a fantastic virtual farm trip where we met Farmer Dotty and learnt lots about the jobs she has to do on her farm. 

We started by meeting the goats and listening to Lola the goat sing. Farmer Dotty then took us to met her sheepdog who had a very important job on the farm. She showed us how the sheepdog herds the sheep across the field each day so that they can eat different patches of grass. 

We then went to the coop where we met Elizabeth the hen and all her friends. We were able to look inside the coop at 3 different types of eggs- maybe you could ask your child what colours they were? 

Finally, Farmer Dotty showed us her solar panels and explained how she is using them to keep her farms electric and hot water running. 

What a fantastic finish we had!
