Class Experience
US Grade Preschool - 1
This class meets once a week to offer fun farm-themed topics on a rotating schedule. Classes are created with little attention spans in mind, and also for minimal required learner materials (pencil and paper for drawing). Small class size means that learners will have plenty of time for verbal interactions, as well as questions and answers. With the ongoing format, learners can stay enrolled for the whole series of topics, or drop in and out for individual classes as their schedule allows....
- Students will learn about many aspects of the farm, through reading and telling stories, problem solving, live animals, drawing, and challenges.
I have been homesteading for more than two decades: living on a timber farm, raising a garden, wildcrafting from forage, and raising various animals, including: horses, dairy goats, waterfowl, turkeys, chickens, rabbits, dogs, and cats. I also served as a veterinary assistant for seven years in a small animal clinic.
Learners should come prepared with something to draw with and something to draw on, as many weeks of content include drawing activities.
Week E: Are you Kidding? Baby Goat Story and Drawing Time involves reading the book, "Are You Kidding" by by Steph and Vivi Allosso - a homeschool mom and her seven-year-old daughter. The book and plush do NOT need to be purchased by learner families, but are available at www.gardenagerie.com, should you want to do so after class.
