Mrs. Jackson's Kinders 2016-2017: Western Day

Today was Western Day at school!

I hope ya'll had a great time! I know I did! Take a look at the centres the students were at.

This is the AM class. We didn't get a class photo of the PM class - we ran out of time!! Next time!

1. Muddy Animal Centre

At this centre, the students learned about the importance of keeping our animals clean. The students played with toy animals in the mud and then practiced washing them off in the soapy water. This centre was a messy centre to be at! The students had a blast!

2. Milking Centre

At this centre the students learned about cows and practiced milking a rubber glove! They had so much fun. Take a look:

3. Playdoh Creation Centre

At this centre the students made play doh creations using plastic farm animal toys.

5. Sensory Play with Tractors and Animals

At this centre the students played with John Deere tractors and plastic farm animals in the sand table.

6. Horseback Riding

At this centre, the students sat on real horse saddles!! They lassoed horses and cows (pictures of horses and cows on pylons) with a hula hoop! Wow!

The afternoon class also did the same thing. The afternoon class was also taught how to barrel race on a horse. We had a horse expert in to help us!

6. Canola Seed

At this centre the students learned about canola seed from a real farmer! She taught us how canola seed turns into canola oil. The students used canola seed and white glue to spell their names!!
