AND THE COW SAYS “MOOOOO!”
Our monthly curriculum theme for March is: Farming and Farm Animals! Each week at Watch Me Grow, the teachers focus on a different topic pertaining to the month’s theme.
This month your child learns about life on the farm, the job of a farmer, animals that live on a farm and how to care for farm animals! They’ll also learn how farming and farm animals affect their own daily lives.
The children are introduced to new vocabulary words such as agriculture, harvest, pasture and tractor. They will play games, read stories and sing songs to help them learn more information about the theme.
