Farm Animals Lesson Plan

Ms. Chase
First Grade
Unit Topic: Naming farm animals.

Grade Level: First Grade

Lesson Focus: The objective of this lesson is to learn and identify farm
animals and what they produce for the farmers to sell.

Lesson Objective: Students will be able to name and identify different farm
animals. They will be able to describe what food or product each animal
contributes to the farm.

Instructional Technique:

o Demonstration
o Individual Work
o Technology
o Class Discussion

Instructional Material:

o Computer
o Blank sheet of paper from their own notebooks
o Pen

Theoretical: This unit is important for students to learn because they need to
know which animals are which. They need to know what each animal makes;
what we eat, what we wear, etc. How animals help us how we live.

Procedure: Introductory Activity will be having a group discussion about


what animals the students think live on a farm and what they think the
animals contribute to the farmer and his family. The students will have out a
sheet of paper to write down what each animal makes.
Step-by-Step:

1. Have a discussion with the students about what animals they believe
live on a farm.
2. Have them go to the Farm Animals website.
3. Go through each question writing down the main part of the question as
a study tool; EXAMPLE – question one asks, “What farm animal has
black or brown spots and provides milk for the farm?”
4. They would right down “black or brown spots, provides milk” on their
white lined paper.
5. When they get the answer correct, they would write down which animal
that was next to their notes. Ex: COW

Closure: When the students are all done with the 7 questions, the class will
come together and have a group discussion about the animals. They should
have notes on each animal the website provided and know a little bit more
about what each animal produces so that we can live.

Adaptations: Struggling readers might have difficulty with this website. The
teacher and an aid in the classroom will be available to help the students read
the questions.

Homework: Go home and research more on your favorite farm animal. Write
a paragraph about that specific animal. We will come to class on Monday and
everyone will share what they wrote!

Evaluation: It will be determined if the children understand about farm


animals by how well they perform on the website. How well they wrote down
their notes of each animal. Also, their homework due on Monday will provide
a better idea of how well they know about these farm animals and what they
contribute to a farm to help us live.
