The Farm Animals Come For a Visit
This week we had a special treat. The owner of our school, Arthur Stewart, brought several of the animals in from his farm. The children were able to feed and pet goats, ducks, a sheep, a rabbit, and a chicken. The kids were overjoyed! It was a very special day.
I am the coordinator of the outdoor classroom at Avon Montessori School. I created this blog to share our goal of taking learning outdoors. I hope it will inspire families and teachers to get outside with their kids. I would love for readers to share ideas as well.
