From Maize to Milk: A Barnyard Full of Activities!
Put on your straw hat and grab a pitchfork -- it's time to go down on the farm! These activities -- centered around pigs, corn, milk, and more -- are guaranteed to make your students "hoot and holler"! Activities for all ages!
First and second grade students of the Blue Pod at Oak View Elementary School in Fairfax, Virginia, took responsibility for some very special guests in their classroom. They were the "foster parents" to some baby chicks! The chicks hatched as their "parents" watched. Soon a farmer would take the little ones -- the chicks, that is! -- and Mrs. Bui's students would write stories about their experiences as temporary "chicken farmers."
Anyone can read the students' stories by paying a visit to How Chicks Grow, Oak View Elementary School. Shannon, one of Bui's students, says, "I was so surprised when I saw the little chicks pop open. I think they had a nice time here. We made a brooder for the chicks. We got to hold the chicks. I liked the chicks. But, they need to be with their moms. Before they were born, they are called Embryos. You have a nice time with chicks. They're very cute and fluffy." If you're not quite ready to adopt a chick, try one of these other farm-related activities...
"SOME PIG"
Language arts -- book reviews. What could be more fitting as a language arts component to your harvest or farming unit than the adorable story of Charlotte's Web by E. B. White? All of the typical farm animals are present in this tale, but they are not just moving about the barnyard -- they're talking! Read the story as a group chapter book or as you decide. Then consider creating a Web page to post your students' reviews and summaries of the book like these two examples: Charlotte's Web and Charlotte's Web. Or send your students' reviews to sites that accept student submissions like Book Reviews for Kids by Kids.
Science -- pig care. If you don't happen to have a pig farm next door, then this site is definitely for you! Farmtastic Voyage takes you on a tour of a pork producing farm in Iowa with two young farmers, Bethany and Michael. Your students will learn about what pigs eat, how to care for them, and how their owners keep them comfortable. There are many pictures to illustrate the ideas presented. You could have your students keep track of all of the facts they learn during their tour in a "pig handbook." At the end of your voyage, ask a few questions and allow the students to refer to their "handbooks" to answer them!
IF IT'S NOT TOO "CORNY"...
Science -- uses of corn. Known as "maize" to Native Americans, corn continues to be a popular vegetable among children, and this Web site will help you to share its story with your class. Korn for Kids has informational pages that address the history of corn and its many uses and nutritional benefits. Did you know that corn is the primary ingredient in many dry pet foods? To prove just how many different foods contain corn, have your students print and complete the "Corn Word Scramble." To practice their label-reading skills, on an assigned day have them bring in a grocery item from home that has corn in it. They will be "a-maized" by the surprising versatility of plain old corn!
Science -- scientific experimentation. Bring a crop of corn into your classroom with a ton of activities from Kids CORNer. This "bountiful" set of twelve experiments to try with corn comes from the Corn World Web site. Use the experiments to show your students why kernels of corn pop when they are heated, where corn is grown, and how plants contribute to the making of plastic. You will even find a set of review questions with each activity to see just how well your budding scientists have been paying attention! This is the perfect site to complement a study of the scientific method. As you perform the experiments, point out the steps to follow: hypothesis, procedure, data collection, and conclusion. You could even have your students make "lab reports" that identify these steps.
MINDING THE FARM
Language arts -- organizing information using Venn-diagrams. Kidz Korner is a great resource from the Michigan Department of Agriculture. Here your students may see what is offered at a county fair, read the stories of kid-farmers, or look at pictures of gardens, dairy farms, or farming families. They might read about dairy farming in Michigan or play a farm animal memory game. If you teach young children, be sure to share the story of Tigger in the "My Pet" category. He is a country cat who moved to the city and a new life. You could relate this online story to the book Cookie's Week by Cindy Ward or the classic tale "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse." (Jan Brett has a neat version of this now, Town Mouse and Country Mouse.) Use a Venn-diagram to illustrate characteristics of the city and the country that your students can name. Compare and contrast the two.
Music/language arts -- farm songs. You'll find the words to many other kids' songs at KIDiddles. If you practice everyday, your students will have these country tunes down in no time!
Social studies -- debate skills. Here's a great farm site for older students! Barnyard Palace contains an aerial photo of the Teaching Animal Unit at the NCSU Veterinary Medicine College that serves as a clickable map. Read about the beef cows, poultry, and horses on this teaching farm by selecting a portion of this photograph. There are plenty of facts to share and lots of pictures. Because many of the animals are raised primarily for consumption, this is probably not the best site for early elementary students. You could use this fact as a springboard to a discussion of the ethics of raising animals for food, or even for scientific research, with more mature kids.
Social studies -- Montana agriculture. Visit MT Kids: Agriculture with your class to learn about the many crops and animals raised in Montana. Use Teaching Master 1 to reinforce the concepts presented with a good old-fashioned game of "Jeopardy." Students in upper elementary grades can write their own questions.
"LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE"
Language arts -- comparison. Few stories tell of the difficulties of agricultural life as well as those of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Students who are familiar only with the television version of those tales will be enthralled by the books. Add to that collection the site called Laura Ingalls Wilder, Frontier Girl. This site offers pages of background on all of the characters of the stories, the places in which Laura lived, and what life was like for the Ingalls as a farming family in the 1800s. Read a portion of one of the many "Little House" books to your class and then visit this site to learn more about its author. Have your students compare the real-life story of Laura Ingalls, the books' versions of her experiences, and the television portrayal.
GOT MILK?
Science -- the making of milk. If you asked your students, they could probably tell you that milk comes from cows, but not much more about it. For instance, what do the terms "homogenized" and "pasteurized" that we see on milk cartons mean? Have the students in your class study up on their understanding of milk with a virtual tour of a dairy farm at MooMilk. When they have finished, they might take the "MooMilk Quiz." How many different products can they name that contain milk? Ask your students to make a chart that shows the process of making milk -- from the cow to the refrigerator.
Social studies -- making butter. Making butter is as easy as one, two, three! Start by pouring cream into a jar, about half full. Then place the lid on tightly. Make use all of the busy hands in your classroom! Pass around the jar, periodically moving from one student to the next, each having a chance to shake the jar vigorously. When you no longer hear the liquid moving inside, check your butter. This is a little rudimentary, so you'll want to spread the butter on a good, flavorful cracker!
Health -- nutrition with milk. We all know that milk is good for us, but how good is it? Well, it's great! Milk gives us calcium for strong bones and healthy teeth. But don't let me tell you, see for yourself at Got Milk? This Web site speaks to kids, in their own language, about the goodness of "moo." When they've finished reading the praises of milk, send your students to Teaching Master 2, and instruct them to make their own plan for infusing a little milk into their diet!

Brief Description
Students explore how New World explorers helped change the Old World's diet (and vice versa).
Objectives
Students will
learn about changes that occurred in the New World and Old World as a result of early exploration.
use library and Internet sources to research food origins. (Older students only.)
create a bulletin-board map illustrating the many foods that were shared as a result of exploration.
Keywords
Columbus, explorers, origin, food, timeline, plants, map, New World, Old World, colonies, colonial, crops, media literacy, products, consumer
Materials Needed:
library and/or Internet access (older students only)
outline map of the world (You might print the map on a transparency; then use an overhead projector to project and trace a large outline map of the world onto white paper on a bulletin board.)
magazines (optional)
Lesson Plan
The early explorers to the Americas were exposed to many things they had never seen before. Besides strange people and animals, they were exposed to many foods that were unknown in the Old World. In this lesson, you might post an outline map of the continents on a bulletin board. Have students use library and/or Internet resources (provided below) to research some of the edible items the first explorers saw for the first time in the New World. On the bulletin board, draw an arrow from the New World (the Americas) to the Old World (Europe, Asia, Africa) and post around it drawings or images (from magazines or clip art) of products discovered in the New World and taken back to the Old World.
Soon, the explorers would introduce plants/foods from the Old World to the Americas. You might draw a second arrow on the board -- from the Old World to the New World -- and post appropriate drawings or images around it.
Adapt the Lesson for Younger Students
Younger students will not have the ability to research foods that originated in the New and Old World. You might adapt the lesson by sharing some of the food items in the Food Lists section below. Have students collect or draw pictures of those items for the bulletin board display.
Resources
In addition to library resources, students might use the following Internet sites as they research the geographic origins of some foods:
Curry, Spice, and All Things Nice: Food Origins
The Food Timeline
Native Foods of the Americas
A Harvest Gathered: Food in the New World
We Are What We Eat Timeline (Note: This resource is an archived resource; the original page is no longer live and updated.)
Food Lists Our research uncovered the Old and New World foods below. Students might find many of those and add them to the bulletin board display. Notice that some items appear on both lists -- beans, for example. There are many varieties of beans, some with New World origins and others with their origins in the Old World. In our research, we found sources that indicate onions originated in the New and sources that indicate onions originated in the Old World. Students might create a special question mark symbol to post next to any item for which contradictory sources can be found
Note: The Food Timeline is a resource that documents many Old World products. This resource sets up a number of contradictions. For example:
Many sources note that tomatoes originated in the New World; The Food Timeline indicates that tomatoes were introduced to the New World in 1781.
The Food Timeline indicates that strawberries and raspberries were available in the 1st century in Europe; other sources identify them as New World commodities.
Foods That Originated in the New World: artichokes, avocados, beans (kidney and lima), black walnuts, blueberries, cacao (cocoa/chocolate), cashews, cassava, chestnuts, corn (maize), crab apples, cranberries, gourds, hickory nuts, onions, papayas, peanuts, pecans, peppers (bell peppers, chili peppers), pineapples, plums, potatoes, pumpkins, raspberries, squash, strawberries, sunflowers, sweet potatoes, tobacco, tomatoes, turkey, vanilla, wild cherries, wild rice.
Foods That Originated in the Old World: apples, bananas, beans (some varieties), beets, broccoli, carrots, cattle (beef), cauliflower, celery, cheese, cherries, chickens, chickpeas, cinnamon, coffee, cows, cucumbers, eggplant, garlic, ginger, grapes, honey (honey bees), lemons, lettuce, limes, mangos, oats, okra, olives, onions, oranges, pasta, peaches, pears, peas, pigs, radishes, rice, sheep, spinach, tea, watermelon, wheat, yams.
Extension Activities
Home-school connection. Have students and their parents search their food cupboards at home; ask each student to bring in two food items whose origin can be traced to a specific place (foreign if possible, domestic if not). Labels from those products will be sufficient, especially if the products are in breakable containers. Place those labels/items around a world map; use yarn to connect each label to the location of its origin on the map.
Media literacy. Because students will research many sources, have them list the sources for the information they find about each food item. Have them place an asterisk or checkmark next to the food item each time they find that item in a different source. If students find a food in multiple sources, they might consider it "verified"; those foods they find in only one source might require additional research to verify.
Assessment
Invite students to agree or disagree with the following statement:The early explorers were surprised by many of the foods they saw in the New World.
Have students write a paragraph in support of their opinion.
