| Helping Farmer Brown! |
|
Farmer Brown fell asleep on the farm today before
closing the gate to the animal pens, so all of the animals are out! He
needs you to help him round up the animals, and count and compare them
to make sure they are all accounted for. He has 6 chickens, 2 cows, 4
pigs, 2 horses, and 1 dog for you to round up. |

You will receive a sheet of paper from your teacher with 5 empty barns
on it. Each kind of animal has their own barn. 2) Draw the animals in their own barns with your crayons. If Farmer Brown has 2 cows, draw 2 cows in a barn. If he has 4 pigs, draw 4 pigs in a different barn. 3) Color your animals and write the name of the animal under the barn. Write the number of animals in the barn on the rooftop. 4) With your red crayon, label the barn with the most animals in it "more". 5) With your blue crayon, label the barn with the least animals in it "less". 6) With your yellow crayon, label the barns with equal amounts of animals in them "equal". 7) If you need any help, you can replay the comparing game HERE. 8) When you are finished, give the paper to your teacher. Farmer Brown thanks you for all of your help today! |
