Video reading of a farm book for preschool classes

It’s Farm Market Day written by Rocky Porch Moore.?

This summer we are seeing many crops and foods being grown on farms. Tall stalks of corn. Green fields of beans. Animals on the farm.

These foods will soon be ready for the harvest in the fall. Farmers will pick the crops and foods. They will, no doubt, save some for their families, but they will ship many of these foods off to grocery stores and farm markets.

This book is the story of a family’s visit to a local farm market. Listen along to the video reading and join in on their journey to experience the many things to see and do at the farm market.

After your reading journey, plan a field journey to visit your own local farm market for locally grown foods and fresh produce.

    Thank you, Mrs. Case. Wonderful to get your comment on this video reading. I hope to put up a few more book readings soon. Thinking they are resources for preschool classes to use technology in the classroom, especially small classes or home child care learning centers.

    Thanks for commenting, Deb. The video book readings can be a useful technology tool in classrooms to add a different voice to reading times. Farm is a great theme as well and a great time to teach about farm markets.
