"Exploring the Lives of Farm Animals: Lessons That Teach Compassion is an innovative collection of lessons that starts young children on a journey toward supporting a kinder and more sustainable food system. Beautifully illustrated with fun and creative activities, it introduces children to the complex and emotionally engaging lives of farm animals. All in all, it is a wonderful way to teach empathy and compassion for others to our children."

— Alicia Silverstone, Actress, Author, and Health Advocate

Lesson Plan Highlights:

  • How Are We Similar to and Different From Farm Animals?
    Students draw pictures of what foods they eat, where they live, who their families are, and what they like to do for fun. They share their pictures and discuss how they are similar to and different from their classmates’ pictures. Then, they compare their drawings to what foods farm animals eat, where they live, who their families are, and what they like to do for fun. Afterward, students discuss how, even though farm animals’ lives are different from ours, their lives are also similar to ours because both students and farm animals need food, shelter, family, and fun.
  • Mini-Books
    Students create and read their own mini books about cows, pigs, and chickens.
  • Rescued Farm Animal Stories
    Students learn about rescued farm animals and practice their reading comprehension by answering and developing their own questions. Finally, they discuss what they learned about farm animals and how they think farm animals want to be treated.
