Check understanding
- Describe how a farmer looks after an animal such as a chicken, cow or sheep (food, water, shelter, health checks)
- Match animals to the products they provide (e.g. sheep → wool → jumper; cow → milk → cheese)
- Order pictures of how wool gets from a sheep to a jumper (shearing, washing, spinning, knitting)
“Can your child explain how wool gets from a sheep to their jumper, or how farmers look after the hens that lay your eggs?”
