My class went to a farm one day

We saw a soft, brown cow at play

We saw the farmer feed it hay

• He liked it a lot that day

• He ate and ate and ate his hay

• He ran around the barn

• He looked into the sky for fun today

We looked at a chicken's feathers

And we saw a big muddy pig

Her hair was like a prickly brush

Which line finishes the pattern?

• And she tried to eat the slop

• Her eyes were big

• Her eyes were round and very big

• Her eyes were round and big

We saw the goats hit heads

put their hooves on the wall

a little lamb was with

• her brother lamb in a stall

• her sister lamb in the stall

• her brother and sister in the stall

• her mama in the stall

we ate some carrots from the ground

a delicious and healthy snack

that farm was extremely awesome

• I hope my class and I go back

• I hope we can go back

• I hope we never go back

• I hope we are back
