More farm unit activities for Elementary ELL

And here is the second part of the farm theme. It will be all in a single product. Link: 

Contrast the pet and farm animals. Display the barn cutouts and the house cutouts on the board.
Teacher: What is this ?
Students: It is the barn.
Teacher: What is this ?
Students: It is the house.
Tell them to come to the front and place the animals where they belong.
Teacher: This is the cow. It lives in the farm.
Students: This is a dog. It lives in a house.
Say an animal and students say pet or farm:
Teacher: Hen!
Students: farm!
Give the students the animals to sort out on their desks into farm animals and pets.

Then, name four animals and have the students put them in the same order on their desks.
Teacher: rooster, goat, turtle, cow.
   
Have the students sort the pets and the farm animals on the worksheets. Glue them in place and then trace all the vocabulary words.
Teacher: What color is the goat?
Students: It´s gray.
Teacher: orange!
Students: the cat and the fish.

And with the worksheets, there is always something else that we do with them, what about a board game. I grabbed a file folder. Cut all the animals into squares, glued them into a path. And that´s a worksheet that has another use after it is doneI included the farmers and the all the game board pieces.

Baby animals. Display the adult animals flashcards on one side of the board and the baby animals on the other side.

Hand in all the animals flashcards in random order. At your signal have them run and find their match as mother and baby.
Teacher: mother! And the students who have the Mother farm animals show their animal. Do the same with baby.

I created snapshots! Students color all the animals and trace the words. Then, cut and paste the animals where they belong. Cut all the snapshots into pictures and have them match each mother with it´s baby. They can also join two snapshots(mother and baby) using chenille. I placed my matches in a pocket chart.

Or make a long chain of mother and baby using chenille. Or make a snapshot book ring.

Farm animals body. Place the hen flashcard on the board. (LABELING)
Teacher: What animal is this?
Students: It´s a hen.

Point to the mouth.
Teacher: What is this ?
Students: It´s the mouth.
Continue with all the known body parts and write them as the students say the word. Then go with the unknown words.
Teacher: Look, this is the wing. How many wings does a hen have?
Students: two wings.
Students can sort with you the legs of all the animals. Write two legs and four legs on the board. Place the animals where they belong.
Teacher: cow!
Students: four legs!

Give each group a poster board and an animal cutout. Have them label the body parts. Place them on a designated wall in the classroom or make a book.
Give a cutout to each student. Name a body part. The student with the animal that has the body part mentioned has to stand up and show his/her animal.
Teacher: beak! (students stand up with their cutout)
Place the missing body animals cutouts on the board. Ask the students.
Teacher: This is the horse. What´s missing?
Students: The tail!
Draw the tail. Continue with the rest of the animals.
Play the game Guess who ? with the flashcards.
Teacher: It´s pink. It´s small.oink!
Students: the pig !
Teacher: NO!
Students: The piglet!
Teacher: YES!

Label the parts of the body. I used letters from old magazines.

What do farm animals give. Here´s my list:
Place the farm animal flashcards on the board and create a mind map by placing each animal's produce under each arrow.
Teacher:   COW!
Students: milk.

I made this printable accordion book. It can be done an animal per book or join all the animals.

Farm animals eat!

I added matching cards for the farm animal and the food that animal eats.

Animal positions. Use the cutouts. Place your cutouts around the barn and start asking questions.
Teacher: What´s is this?
Students: the horse!
Teacher: Where is the horse?
Students: It´s in the barn.

I added trees, fence, silo to complete the farm scene.
Students will color the worksheets and make a 3D farm scene.
Teacher: The pig is pink. (Continue with more animals)
Have the students make the scene using toilet paper rolls and clips or play dough.

Give directions for placing the animals or farm parts.
Teacher: The tractor is in front of the barn.
 Or have the students give directions.
