Farm Animal Grouping and Labeling

For my farm unit I created this simple activity.  The fence is actually my old 'Breyer' fence from my horse collection from when I was little :)  It's very handy as it folds up accordion style.  There is an assortment of farm animals that they first group together and then match the label to.  It is self correcting as the labels have pictures of the animals on them.  

 After grouping them together and matching the labels appropriately they can write the words of the animals on the paper most appropriate for them (strips of paper or lined paper).  Of course there is often some play involved after all the work is done which they always love.
