Description
A dairy farm unit for 1st and 2nd grade that pairs real science with fun practice: three nonfiction passages with questions, milk math and a shake and make butter experiment.
Students read, write, add and subtract with dairy foods, then finish with a big farm maze and an award.
No prep for most pages: just print and go. Gather cream and a jar for the butter experiment.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
The passages are short and true, written so 1st and 2nd graders can read them with growing independence.
Math pages use the same dairy foods, so word problems feel connected to what students just read.
Almost every page is black and white and print and go.
