Farm School 2 Go: Animal Science was designed to make teaching engaging, flexible, and simple. Whether you're homeschooling one child, leading a classroom, teaching a co-op, or running a micro school,
each lesson includes everything you need to confidently guide your students through meaningful, hands-on learning while allowing the flexibility to adapt activities to your family's or classroom's unique schedule and learning style.
Throughout this workbook, you'll find:
Complete lesson plans
Printable student activities and worksheets for each grade level (grade level recommendation and lesson plan modifications for the activities are included in each unit)
Hands-on experiments and projects
Nature study and observation prompts
Discussion questions for each age group
Vocabulary and review activities
Written Reflection opportunities
Extension activities for deeper learning
Most lessons use common household or classroom supplies.
If additional materials are required, you'll find a Materials Needed section at the beginning of each lesson. I've selected inexpensive supplies that are easy to find.
One of the best ways to learn about animals is by experiencing them firsthand.
To help make learning memorable, we've included an appendix featuring our favorite educational destinations throughout Northern Utah, including:
Working farms
Ranches
Museums
Nature centers
Wildlife areas
Petting zoos
State parks
Agricultural fairs and seasonal events
These outings are optional but highly encouraged. Even one field trip can bring an entire unit to life and create lasting memories for your students.
Many lessons include printable games, crafts, journals, and extension activities that reinforce key concepts through creativity and hands-on learning.
Print only the pages you need, or complete activities digitally if you prefer.
The appendices also include a carefully curated collection of resources for parents and educators, including:
Printables and planners
Recommended books
Educational websites
Videos and documentaries
Podcasts
Farm and agriculture organizations
Animal care resources
Extension activities for curious learners
These resources allow families and educators to continue exploring topics long after each lesson is complete.
There is no "right" way to use this curriculum.
Some families complete one lesson each week, while others enjoy moving at a faster pace. Some students will love writing detailed responses, while younger learners may prefer drawing pictures or discussing their observations aloud.
Feel free to adapt activities, spend extra time on your child's favorite animals, or revisit lessons whenever curiosity leads the way.
I have personally curated all of these resources over the course of, quite frankly, all of my years as a horsewoman, preschool teacher, ESL language and reading tutor, as well as a mother. None of this is AI generic slop, simply tried and true, carefully curated knowledge acquired and compiled with lots of love and dedication. I personally believe learning should be effective, but more importantly, it should be joyful, interactive, and full of wonder.
Don't worry about completing every activity or having every answer. Instead, encourage your students to ask questions, make observations, explore the outdoors, and be curious about God’s creation around them.
The greatest lessons often happen outside the workbook, in the barn, on the trail, at the farm gate, or while watching a bee visit a flower.
I hope this curriculum inspires many adventures, meaningful conversations and experiences as your family or classroom discovers the fascinating world of agricultural education together.
Happy learning! XO, Miss Alaynia
