Literacy Snack Farm Read Aloud

October 4, 2017

Grab the FREE printable and see the snack idea to use with Big Red Barn. It's a fun Literacy Snack Farm Read Aloud for any time of the school year!
this article (and most) on primary playground, does contain affiliate links that we do earn a commission off of.  clicking these links does not cost you any extra but helps our website to keep great articles and freebies like this coming your way.

In this week’s Literacy Snack Farm Read Aloud,  we’re reading, Big Red Barn by Margaret Wise Brown. It’s a simple, rhythmic book about the cycle of a day on a farm, where a family of animals peacefully plays and sleeps. It pairs as a perfect read as an addition to your farm animal unit or a field trip to a farm.

Literacy Snack Idea Farm ingredients

Assemble

To make the cow, each student will need to use the cookie cutter to make a circle. Save the bread scraps. Use a small amount of the strawberry cream cheese, and spread it along the bottom portion of the cut-out bread as the cow’s nose. Place the 2 chocolate chips in the nose as his nostrils. Place the mini Oreos on the cow and add the eyeballs on top of those. Use the Hersey kisses as his horns. Using some of the bread scraps, tear off 2 corners and add them as his ears.

Free Printable

While the kids are eating their snacks, I made a free printable for them to work on. They will draw their favorite animals that are found on the farm.

Have you seen our Farm Scavenger Hunt? This would be fun to do alongside reading the book or also to take along on your next field trip to the farm. 

You can find all of our other scavenger hunts here. 

And farm bingo is a great way to learn new vocabulary too! You can find the Farm Bingo here.

I hope your students are enjoying these Literacy snacks as much as mine are.

Thanks for stopping by!
