Holy Cows!!

As I was teaching math Thursday morning, I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. I saw about 6 cows come up over the hill into our bus parking lot. It was a sight to be seen and so was the excitment in my students. They were amazed to see cows right outside our classroom window. The cows made their way to the back of the school and luckily ended up in our fenced in playground area. Of course there were frantic teachers (me included) running outside to capture this miraculous moment with digital cameras and flip videos. This was the most exciting teachable moment I have ever witnessed. Needless to say, the rest of the day was all about COWS!! Now we know why our school was named "KIMMEL FARM!!!"

  1. I was hoping some day we were going to see a farm animal but I had no idea it would be cows. Everyone in the class were rushing to the window to see the cows. I could'nt even see the cows because of everybody at the window.Anyway,I hope we can see a different farm animal this year.

  13. when we was doing math Mrs. Ellington said they was cows outside. So everyone went to the window and then the cows went to our playground and Mrs. Norwood was doing a funny dance and the farmer came. We was outside and the farmer said get the kids inside. Then the cows left.

  14. I was hoping I would see a farm animal, but I saw some cows. Those cows were big! In the cows went in our playgroun and their farmer was helping them get out of the playground to go home. The cows were funny because they went on our playground and they ran.

  15. I thought the cows was coming to eat the plant and then they went into the playground. The farmer had to take them back into the farm. Outside the window I saw 6 cows walking to the playground. Then we went outside to go see them.
