A Day At The Farm!

We had a great time visiting the Bread and Butter farm!  It was a rainy day but there were so many things to do and see that we didn't mind one bit!


We visited the greenhouse where we tasted fresh kale, Swiss chard, and cilantro.








We shook up cream until it turned to butter!




We met some chickens. 




We went in the special barn where the cows are milked.  We saw calves and....








...kittens!




We even met some pigs!






Before we left, we ate some fresh bread with the butter that we made.  It was a great day at the farm!

We were so excited when OUR honey cells filled the hive today!  Time for another school wide celebration!

REMINDERS!

On Wednesday, November 2 there will be a half-day for students.  Dismissal will be at 11:30.  School's Out will run for it's regular hours, until 6:00 p.m.  Students attending School's Out should bring a lunch from home. 


On Thursday, November 3 we will visit the Bread and Butter farm, right here in South Burlington.  We will leave Chamberlin at 9:45 and will return by 12:30.  Students should dress for the weather.  Boots are a good idea, but please remember a change of shoes for the afternoon.  We will be eating lunch at the farm as well, so please send lunch from home, including a drink. 

Bat Guy Comes to Kindergarten


Barry the Bat Guy came to visit in room 3. We learned a lot about bats.  Barry volunteers for the Vermont Bat Center where he rehabilitates injured or abandoned bats.  He had some amazing pictures to share with us. 



Foodplay!

Today we enjoyed a presentation of Foodplay.  The kids LOVED the performance and learned a lot about healthy food choices.  We were most surprised to learn how much sugar there is in soda.  Special thanks to Hannaford supermarkets for bringing this wonderful presentation to Chamberlin School!
