Description
A farm to table unit for 1st and 2nd grade: three nonfiction passages with questions, farm scenes to read closely, plant parts we eat and a celery drinks water experiment.
Students read, write, add, subtract and work with tens and ones using farm foods, then finish with a big farm maze and an award.
No prep for most pages: just print and go. Gather celery, a cup of water and food coloring for the experiment.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
The passages are short and true, written so 1st and 2nd graders can read them with growing independence.
Real farm scenes teach students to look for details and answer questions about a picture.
Math pages use the same farm foods, so word problems feel connected to what students just read.
