On Thursday, we spent the morning at Miss Tamasi's parents' farm. The purpose of our trip was to see how natural resources can be used day-to-day, and how solar panels work. This was all a part of our Science unit about the conservation of energy. But there was also plenty of time to play, enjoy the surroundings, and eat some delicious homemade food. |
Our morning started out with a walk through the property (trying not to step on the little treats left behind by the animals!) We learned about how to make maple syrup, and some of us really wanted to swim in the pond! We were able to check out the huge gardens and greenhouses, and got to explore the barn. We watched the new baby chicks run around and play, and looked for eggs in the hen house. |
