Mrs. Elementary's Website
City Life, Country Life
Assignment Description:
Students will visit a 4H website to take a virtual field trip to six different types of farms. They will then use a Venn diagram to chart similarities and differences between urban and rural life.
Assignment Directions:
Today in class, we read "Moo in the Morning" by Barbara Maitland. To continue looking at farm life, I would like you to visit the 4H Virtual Farm website. There you will see examples of six different types of farms. Select one type of farm to explore.
After you have visited the site, use the chart to write down similarities and differences between our life here in the city and farm life. We will use this diagram in class tomorrow to add to our KWL chart. I have included an extra copy of the worksheet below - just in case you left yours at school!

You can also post Assignments on a daily basis for your classes. In the example above, I have created a task using Venn diagramming. Notice that within the Assignment Directions I have included a link to a website. I was also able to post the handout that was distributed in class, as well as a grading rubric, and make them available for download.
