New inquiry... new changes to our environment

We have a new inquiry... farms.  We could scaffold on this by talking about farm animals, but what I fear is falling back upon familiar and comfortable themes from our past Kindergarten program.  So, Becky and I are choosing to focus on the act of farming.  We are planting herbs and vegtables with the students and asked the students what they wanted to see in our classroom to support this new inquiry.   Some of our students asked for a "farmers market".  

They sorted our fruit and vegetable plasitc food and choose which baskets they wanted to use.  We will ask the students to label their farmers market and we will bring in some real vegtables and fruit to add to it.  We can't wait to see where the learning takes us...
