SHOW & TELL
JK to Centennial Farms
On Tuesday, December 7th the two Jr. Kindergarten classes went on an adventure to Centennial Farms in Costa Mesa. Upon arrival at the farm our groups met our farmer tour guides. For many of our students who live in urban areas, seeing live animals and vegetables was a huge adventure. We watched two cows being milked; the students were mesmerized seeing the white milk enter the milking machine. We learned about many plants that grow on the farms that we eat; celery, carrots, lettuce. We saw sugar cane plants and oats growing, but the students didn't believe that either green plant had anything to do with their breakfast. After petting pigs, sheep, and goats we all planted a couple of radish seeds. The highlight of the trip was that after learning about the life cycle of chickens, each student had the opportunity to hold a baby chick. We learned how to put our thumb gently on the chick's back so it did not wiggle away. How fun! After eating our lunches in a beautiful, sunny picnic area, we loaded back onto the bus for home. What a great day! Centennial Farms is open to the public. Check out their open times on-line and take your whole family on a fun adventure.
