First Grade - County Fair

Each year, the first grade spends three weeks reading Charlotte's Web and exploring life on a farm. The unit falls in time for the students to attend the East Texas State Fair and look at various farm animals and all of the sights and sounds of being at a fair.  To culminate the study, the first graders enjoy their own County Fair in our gym.  The afternoon is filled with crafts and games, as well as authentic fair food.  Students also get to show off their own fair projects in either horticulture, arts and crafts, or farm animals.
