$19.95

Practical Agriculture & Animal Care Mini Unit

This hands-on unit introduces students to the everyday workings of a small hobby farm through practical, real-world tasks. The focus is on understanding how animals, land and resources are managed on a small scale, rather than learning isolated facts.

Students explore basic animal care, feeding routines, shelter needs and simple farm responsibilities while also considering how different elements of a farm work together. Tasks include planning a small farm layout, researching suitable animals, and completing simple written and visual activities that reflect real farm life.

The unit combines practical learning with structured recording, allowing students to document routines, design ideas and observations in a clear and organised way. Suitable for a range of ages, activities can be adjusted in depth while still producing meaningful, portfolio-ready evidence.

The result is a small collection of work that demonstrates understanding of animal care, farm systems and practical responsibilities, presented in a simple and usable format.
