Sheep and Lambs

I love my old wood floors, but this time of year they are c-c-c-cold. Wool rugs and wool socks help warm those cold mornings. Wool provides great protection against the cold because it doesn't freeze when it gets wet. Sheep have grazed in Oklahoma pastures at least since statehood and sheep and wool ranked 15th among all Oklahoma agricultural commodities in 2006.

Sheep have a 270-degree radius of view, almost 3/4 of a circle. Humans only see 170 degrees at best. This makes sheep very difficult to sneak up on or surprise. Sheep have poor eyesight but excellent hearing.

Activity: Radius of Vision

1. Students practice angles and degrees of a circle

  • Students will stand and follow teacher directions, as follows.
  • Students will turn left or right in quarter, half, three-quarter and full turns. (For greater physical activity, have students jump from position to position.)
  • Discuss the turns in relation to degrees of a circle.
  • Students will turn left or right by 45, 90, 180, 270 and 360 degrees.
  • With older students, discuss the specific names of angles (right angle, straight angle, obtuse angle, acute angle.
  • Students will change positions to demonstrate each of the angles listed above.

2. Students will work in groups of three to determine range of vision.

  • One student will stand on a paper circle.
  • Member Number 2 will place a mark on the circle showing the direction Member Number 1 is facing.
  • Member Number 3 will hold an object directly behind Member Number 1 and slowly move it around the edge of the circle until Member Number 1 can see it.
  • Member Number 2 will then mark the point on the circle where Member Number 1 was able to see the object.
  • Students will exchange places so that the range of vision is measured for each person in the group.
  • Students will determine range of vision by calculating the degrees on the circle.
  • Students will show the range of vision of a sheep by marking 270 degrees from the starting point on the circle.
  • Students will compare their own ranges of vision with that of a sheep.

3. For younger students, mark the circle ahead of time at 270 degrees (range of vision for a sheep).

  • Each student will stand on the circle while another student holds an object at 270 degrees ( the point marked ahead of time).
  • The second student will then move the object to the point where the first student can see it.
  • Students will discuss the difference between their own range of vision and that of a sheep.

4. Students will compose stories and draw pictures illustrating the difficulty predators might have sneaking up on sheep.

5. Students will use online search engines or library resources to find the sight radius of some other animals.

Fleece as White as Snow: Students become familiar with vocabulary words pertaining to the production of sheep.

Wet and Wooly: Students examine some of the characteristics of wool.

Combing a fleece

Researchers in Pennsylvania have developed a biopolishing method that makes scratchy wool feel silky smooth. The US military is interested in using this biopolished wool, especially for manufacture of underwear for our troops. Underwear garments currently used contain synthetic fibers that can burn and melt into wounds during combat situations. Wool produces a self-extinguishing flame and dissipating ash when burned.

Race car drivers wear wool-lined suits to reduce their chances of being burned in a firey crash.

If you have a lab table, try this lesson - Great Balls of Fire - to test flammability in wool and some other common fabrics.

When the Power Came On

After December's storms some of your students now know first hand what it's like not to have electricity. Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb in 1879, and his company started generating power in 1882, but electricity did not reach all the farms of Oklahoma until the mid 1940s.

Activities

  1. Students will read about the History of Electricity in America (Smithsonian site) and the History of Rural Electric Coops and write papers in which they discuss life without electricity then and now.
  2. Students will search online to find out when electricity first came to your part of the state.

What Do the Animals Do in Winter?

People live in warm houses and wear heavy coats outside in winter. We find plenty of food at the grocery store. But what happens to the animals?

Farm Animals

In colder parts of the country, farm animals may go into a barn or some other shelter, but in Oklahoma most farm animals stay outdoors. The farmer/rancher may build or plant a wind break to provide shelter from the harshest conditions. Farm animals adapt to the cold weather by gaining weight and growing winter coats. The farmer or rancher checks daily to make sure livestock has enough food and water.When temperatures drop, ponds may freeze, so the farmer/rancher chops through the ice with an ax to make a hole big enough for the animals to drink from. Animals need large amounts of food in winter to stay warm, so round bales of hay are delivered to the field by tractor for the animals to eat.

The wild ancestors of farm animals survived winter in several ways, just as wild animals do today.

Migration

The wild ancestors of cattle were probably migratory, like bison, deer and elk. These animals move around in search of food and shelter.

Many birds migrate in the fall. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large flocks. Many fish migrate, too. They may swim south, or move into deeper, warmer water. Insects also migrate. Some butterflies and moths fly very long distances. For example, Monarch butterflies spend the summer in Canada and the Northern U.S. They migrate as far south as Mexico for the winter. Most migrating insects go much shorter distances. Many, like termites and Japanese beetles, move downward into the soil. Earthworms also move down, some as far as six feet below the surface.

Adaptation

Some wild animals adapt, like Oklahoma farm animals that stay outdoors in winter. To keep warm, they may grow new, thicker fur. On weasels and snowshoe rabbits, the new fur is white to help them hide in the snow.

Food is hard to find in the winter. Some animals, like squirrels, mice and beavers, gather extra food in the fall and store it to eat later. Some, like rabbits and deer, spend winter looking for moss, twigs, bark and leaves to eat. Other animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change. The red fox eats fruit and insects in the spring, summer and fall. In the winter, it cannot find these things, so instead it eats small rodents. Wild boar, the wild cousins of domestic swine, adapt by growing heavier coats and changing their diet.

Animals may find winter shelter in holes in trees or logs, under rocks or leaves, or underground. Some mice even build tunnels through the snow. Animals like squirrels and mice may huddle close together.

Hibernation

Some animals "hibernate" for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal's body temperature drops, and its heartbeat and breathing slow down. It uses very little energy. In the fall, these animals get ready for winter by eating extra food and storing it as body fat. They use this fat for energy while hibernating. Some also store food like nuts or acorns to eat later in the winter. Bears, skunks, chipmunks, and some bats hibernate.

In ancient times, people living in cold climates may have survived the winter with their own form of hibernation. One historian reports that in the mountains of France, when the weather turned cold, people would settle in for warmth with their cows and pigs and do nothing for months on end. This practice also helped conserve limited food supplies.


Oklahoma Vegetable of the Month - Winter Squash

The term "winter squash" dates back to a time when refrigeration and cross country transportation was not as readily available as it is now. Fresh foods from all over the world were not stocked on grocery shelves year round. "Good keepers" became known as winter vegetables if they would "keep" until December. Winter squash have hard, thick skins and will keep for up to a month if stored in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place.

The best tasting winter squash is available this time of year, beginning in early fall. Purchase acorn squash that is almost solid dark green. The best butternut squash has a thick neck and small round base. Ornamental squash, also plentiful during the holiday season, is edible but normally not as flavorful as acorn, butternut and spaghetti squash.

Play With Your Food - What's Inside?

  1. Bring in an assortment of winter squash.
  2. Students write descriptions and predict what they will find inside. What color will will they be? Will there be seeds? Where are the seeds located? What will it smell like? How will it feel?
  3. Use a very sharp knife, a cutting board and a mallet to slice each squash in half. (Winter squash is difficult to cut, so take safety precautions. You might want to have some cut ahead of time to avoid accidents.)
  4. Allow students to smell and taste the squash, and have them write their observations after cutting.

A Hidden Beauty: Bulbs

It may be cold and dreary outside, but students can grow beautiful flowers indoors from bulbs. Narcissus and amaryllis are the simplest and are usually available this time of year, maybe even on sale. In this lesson students learn about bulbs and construct a model of a plant that grows from a bulb.


January 13 is Plough Sunday.

Plough Sunday is a traditional English celebration of the beginning of the agricultural year. Plough Sunday celebrations usually involve bringing a ploughshare into a church with prayers for the blessing of the land. It is traditionally held on the Sunday after Epiphany, the Sunday between January 7 and January 13. Work in the fields began the day after Plough Sunday, on Plough Monday.

Traditionally the stubbles were left after harvest to feed and fatten up poultry and geese for Michaelmas, which marked the end, and the start of the farming year.

As most of the cereal crops grown were sown in the spring, ploughing did not start until after the Christmas festivities in January and February, giving time for the frost to break down the soil prior to sowing in March or April.

P.A.S.S for this activity

In Oklahoma, and throughout the American South, people eat a bowl of black-eyed peas, or Hoppin' John.

Hoppin’ John is said to have originated with African slaves on southern plantations. Historians have two theories as to where the name "Hoppin' John" originated. The first comes from the idea that when guests would arrive at one’s home for dinner, the host would say "just hop in, John," meaning they should make themselves at home and join in the dinner festivities. The second comes from a story that children gathered prior to dinner and would "hop around the table."

Black-eyed peas, also called cow peas, are grown in Oklahoma, mostly to bale as feed for animals. They also grow well in Oklahoma gardens.


A Garden in the Mailbox

In the gloomiest days of winter, beautiful flowers bloom and scrumptious vegetables grow in the mailboxes of gardeners all across the country. Mail order seed companies send out their new catalogs beginning in January.

The first mail-order seed catalog was introduced in 1834. The artists who illustrated the early catalogs took great care to draw botanically correct images. This was very important to the farmer, who paid in winter for the coming summer's harvest. If the size, shape or color of a vegetable or flower was misrepresented in the catalog, the farmer's livelihood might be jeopardized.

National Soup Month

January is National Soup Month. Soup is an ancient food, prepared with great variation all over the world. In India parched barley was ground with juices to make one kind of soup. Mayan Indians used maize for various liquid foods. Early North American Indians made a broth of hickory-nut milk. Yosemite Indians shredded fungi for mushroom soup and also cooked horse-chestnut gruel. The Greeks made soups of beans, peas or lentils or black broth, made of pork, blood, vinegar, salt and seasonings.

In early times soup was called "pottage" (from pot and the Latin potare, to drink), but by the Middle Ages, the word "soup" had replaced "pottage" in most European languages. The word soup is thought to have come from the sound made by slurping hot liquid from a spoon. Some variations of the word are soop, sopa, sope, soepe, suppa, soppe, soep, suppe, soppa, sopera, soupe, chupe, zuppa, and zup. To sup was to eat the evening meal at which soup was traditionally served. Eventually the meal itself became supper.

Celebrate National Soup Month by introducing students to some of the vegetables grown in Oklahoma. Read the classic, Stone Soup, then check out the Oklahoma version and make Oklahoma Stone Soup.

More Soup Activities

January is Wheat Bread Month

If you missed Homemade Bread Day in November (or even if you didn't), make Bread in a Bag to eat with your soup. You may be able to get the ingredients from your school cafeteria, and the cups and baggies you will need are available free from the State Department of Education. Just call 405.521.3327 and allow a couple of weeks for them to get to you.

The "father" of sliced bread is Otto Rohwedder, a former jewelry store owner. He had started work on a slicing machine in 1912, and when bakers told him sliced bread would go stale quickly, he developed an apparatus for holding all of the slices together with hat pins. This wasn't too successful as the pins continued to fall out.

An obvious solution would be a wrapper, but it was not that obvious at the time. Wrapping, however, proved to be the key to success, and in May, 1928, a Battle Creek, Michigan, bakery began turning out the first sliced bread, using Rohwedder's newest slicer, which also wrapped and sealed the loaf.

Little Red Hen

(This lesson has lots of pictures for a puppet play and takes a long time to load. Please be patient.)

The old classic The Little Red Hen is perfect for exploring the process by which wheat is turned into bread. It's also a great way to discuss with your students all the careers involved in making a loaf of bread.
