May has been a busy month for us, and it began with a field trip to the farm with Leah's class. There were so many parents that wanted to go as chaperones, they had a lottery to draw names, and I got to go. The farm is the Underwood Family Farm in Moorpark. While we were there we got to see all sorts of animals, and pick our own vegetables. We got to pick lettuce, onions, celery carrots and beets. It was a unique opportunity for the students to see what the life of a farmer is like. Most agreed that it was hard work. Here are some pictures from the day:
This is Hrant, a boy in Leah's class, with a huge beet!! I love the look of amazement on Leah's face!
Leah and I waiting for the lesson in the "outdoor classroom". She was in a pretty silly mood!
Leah and I checking out a tractor on the farm!
They had these high rise walking planks for the goats to go from pen to pen! It was pretty cool!!
The munchy girl enjoying the farm!!
