Wonder what we're up to? Going to farm!

Dear families,

We're studying farms and country life in our drama class. This week we met two kids named Max and Katie. Their farm has lots of fresh vegetables and fruits that they sold at the Union Square Farmer's Market. But, they were going to close their farm because just two kids couldn't do al l the work by themselves. Their parents got divorced, and their mom had to take a job in town. Max and Katie were so sad they were going to have to close the farm! Good thing we were here because Natalie thought up a plan--we could come to the farm and help them work! Ethan had the idea that if we use team work, we could do all the farm chores.

We could plant for them, feed the animals, and ride the tractor.

We took a photo of our class riding a bus to the farm (but not everyone could fit in the picture). We looked out the bus window and saw the city, a bridge, the highway, the small town of Chittenango, and finally their farm, with one farm house. And, it was raining along the way!

Don't worry, this is all pretend. We're not REALLY moving away from you to go to the farm.

From,

Clara's students (the first grade farmers)
