Farm Unit – Present Continuous for Elementary ELLs

 This resource is included here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Farm-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-3790548

This farm-themed resource reviews present-continuous. The variety of activities lets you adapt to your class. Grab the tips below.

Verbs in Action Flashcards Set with colorful pictures of farm animals doing a variety of actions (run, jump, eat, walk, sit, etc.). Have students speak by describing animal actions or answering questions.

Small cards are also present and ready to print. Play the question game. Students use a small card and ask question: Is the horse eating?

No, it isn’t.

Make an accordion with the small cards to make sentences, ask questions and more. 

Here is a video to check.



Write short sentences to describe the farm animal using any of small cards.

Fill-in-the-blank exercises in this worksheet.

Cut and paste the words in each sentence worksheet. Students glue them in correct order under the animal picture.

Reinforce this grammar point through simple games to help the learners grasp it more fully.  Print both quilts.  Cut any quilt into squares or use as a full board. Give students the sentence squares with the present continuous sentences.  Students match each sentence to the correct picture. For more practice: mix up the sentences and the pictures and play a memory/matching game.

Farm Animals Printable Books

  This resource is included here:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Farm-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-3790548



By combining sentence tracing, vocabulary recognition, and matching, students build skills in a hands-on, meaningful way. Students practice possessive constructions like “The farmer’s tractor”, helping them understand how ownership works in English, by physically connecting the object to its owner with yarn.

Let students color the pictures after they trace the sentences. After the book is assembled, pair students up to read each other's books and check the yarn matches.



Take a look of the pages in the book.

Mommy & Baby Farm Animal Ring Book – Interactive & Versatile Learning

It comes with printable “Snapshot” templates and camera. This activity combines creativity, vocabulary development, and categorization. Students “capture” the farm animals and their babies, as they cut and paste the animal on the corresponding snapshot frame.

This book can be used in several ways:

馃摎 As a ring book for individual review and matching

 or 馃Р On a pocket chart for interactive class games


Foldable “What Do Farm Animals Give Us?” Mini-Books

The final printable book in this set focuses on an essential concept for young learners: what farm animals produce. Each foldable book spotlights a single farm animal and includes three key items that animal provides (like milk, eggs, or wool), reinforcing vocabulary and the real-world value of farm animals.


I've gathered games, worksheets, and creative ideas to prepare your lesson plan for the farm unit!

“Fun on the Farm: Engaging ESL Learners with Hands-On Farm Games”

 This resource is included here:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Farm-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-3790548



Games are a powerful tool for language learning. That’s why I included several interactive farm-themed games in this resource!

Card Games encourage students to speak, listen, read, and think in English in an authentic way. Whether they’re identifying animals, matching vocabulary, or making sentences.


By spelling out farm animal names like horse, duck, sheep, and goat, students are reviewing the words they're learning in a new and tactile way. Draw an animal card, and students race to build the word using letter tiles.

With four starting points, students follow the path on the board game, landing on colored spaces and answering questions that match the color using the corresponding cards. Set up groups of 2–4 students and assign each group a board. Instruct a follow-Up Writing where students write 2–3 sentences about their favorite animal they landed on during the game.

Sorting helps students understand how things are grouped and connected, which is key for building comprehension and academic thinking.  This farm resource includes several sorting mats, such as:

Mommy and Baby Animals

Animal and the Product It Produces


Animal Sounds (Moo, Baa, Oink, etc.)


Farm Headband Game Cards.

Whether you use store-bought headbands or make simple paper ones, this activity is guaranteed to get your students engaged. Each card features a farm animal image, and students wear the card on their head without seeing it, while their classmates give clues.

Encourages Descriptive Language
Clue-givers use descriptions like:
“It says moo.”“It gives us milk.”“It’s black and white.” 


This matching game helps students explore farm life by pairing each animal with what it eats. Students learn not just the animal names, but words like grass, hay, corn, worms, grain, insects, and carrots—expanding their word bank around the farm theme. Lay out all the animals and food cards. Students match them in pairs (cow → grass, pig → corn, chicken → worms).

“Hands-On Farm Vocabulary Activities Worksheets for ELLs”

 This resource is included here:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Farm-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-3790548



These worksheets give your students a meaningful way to practice grammar and vocabulary together, making your Farm Unit comprehensive, communicative, and fun!

To support language development in context, I’ve included two essential grammar worksheets in the Farm Unit resource: one focused on the verb “can” and another practicing the present continuous tense (e.g., "The cow is eating"). These worksheets help students connect grammar structures with real-life vocabulary

capapbility verbs worksheets

Students describe each image using the present continuous tense:

"The horse is jumping."


To support early literacy and vocabulary development, I’ve added a variety of vocabulary-focused worksheets to the Farm Unit resource. These include activities where students match, write, read, color, and draw farm animals.


Find a farm animal word search and sorting worksheets that build on the same set of animal words. Word searches help students scan for patterns, recognize letter combinations, and reinforce spelling. Sorting the farm animals by features (e.g., number of legs, baby/mommy pairs) promotes logical thinking.


Label-the-body-parts worksheets featuring farm animals. These worksheets combine science, vocabulary building. Students learn key animal body part words like tail, legs, ears, wings, beak, hooves, etc.

"Interactive Learning with Small Cards: Engaging Farm Animal Activities for ELLs"

 This resource is included here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Farm-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-3790548



Print the farm unit small cards to offer even more flexibility for interactive learning. Find in this post engaging activities to help students build farm vocabulary, speaking skills, and sentence structures! Small cards allow students to manipulate and interact with the vocabulary rather than just observing.

Small Card Writing Activity. Have learners select 4 small cards and write a short text on their notebooks. By selecting four cards, students must think critically about how to connect the words into a meaningful sentence or short text.


 Encourage Pair and Group Work as students sort the cards into 2 or 4 legs farm animals. Students can also categorize the animals into Big or Small. Grouping words into meaningful categories helps students remember and recall vocabulary more easily.


Small cards are great for students to work independently or with a partner to sort the animals into mommy and baby. As students discuss their choices, they practice explaining, reasoning, and using key phrases (e.g., "The horse is the mommy." "The foal is the baby.")

sort the animals into mommy and baby small cards

Sorting farm animals by products introduces basic classification skills that support early science learning. Review the farm-to-table connections (e.g., cows → milk). Model sentences: "A cow gives us milk." Students will make more sentences as they match the cards.


Use the small cards as a Bingo caller deck. Have students write 6 or 8 words on their notebooks from all the small cards that are displayed on the board or table. They will mark their matching words as they are called.


Students write on the speech bubbles (available on the resource) what Sound the animal makes (Moo, Baa, Cluck). This helps linking phonetic awareness with written words. Students can practice reading their speech bubbles aloud, reinforcing pronunciation and speaking confidence.
