The children will also play a game to reinforce their current knowledge of livestock needs. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 24th lesson in the 1st Year “Where Does My Food Come From?” unit.
