After completing their farm unit in class, the kindergarten students took an exciting field trip to a local dairy farm. The children had the opportunity to see cows up close and learn how milk gets from the farm to the store. They also explored the barn, held baby chicks, sat in tractors, had ice cream and many more fun activities. The trip was both fun and educational, helping students connect what they learned in the classroom to real-life experiences on the farm.
