Madrac Farm-Pumpkin Patch
Madrac Farms Pumpkin Patch is the only true pumpkin patch in the Coastal Empire. They grow Orange Bulldog Pumpkins, a new variety of pumpkin developed by the University of Georgia, which is specifically designed to grow in South Georgia's humid climate, and other test varieties of Orange and White pumpkins. The children were able to walk through the Pumpkin patch and see how the pumpkins grow on the actual vine.
The children fed the goats, chickens, and the pot belly pig Hazel! Of course it was extremely hot so only a few of the goats were interested in eating.
Your child had a blast sliding on the big slide, jumping in the Bouncy House, and playing on the hay bales. New this year was the big slide! The children enjoyed zipping down the 13-foot wooden slide on a potato sack.
The children took a 10 minute hay ride through the Georgia woods, where we were supposed to see deer, hawks, squirrels, rabbits, and yes...even snakes! However, we didn’t have any luck! But the children had a blast looking like country bumpkins with hay hanging out their mouths.
We walked through the corn maze that covered 5 acres - not too big, not too small! We only took one wrong turn!
On our wait of the farm the children were able to choose their very own pumpkin to take home.
The field trip was a huge success and we had so much fun! Thank you to all the parents who were able to come along for the fun!

Students listened to the nonfiction story Nubs: The True Story of a Mutt, a Marine, and a Miracle. In the story Maj Brian Dennis wears the Keffiyeh while driving his humvee.
Keffiyeh is a traditional desert Arab head dress, which evolved from turbans in ancient times. Essential for protecting the eyes, nose, mouth, ears and face from sand. Can also be used as a neck warmer or hand towel. Scarf is high quality stitch. Worn by soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and abroad. Retains heat and absorbs sweat in warm/hot conditions. Imported. The keffiyeh is also known as a shmagh, shemagh or yashmag, a ghutra or a hatta, and is a traditional headdress of Arab men, made of a square of cloth ("scarf"), folded and wrapped in various styles around the head. It is commonly found in arid climate areas to provide protection from direct sun exposure, as well as for occasional use in protecting the mouth and eyes from blown dust and sand.

Student Created Shape Pictures
CCGPS.K.G.6 Compose simple shapes to form larger shapes. For example, “Can you join these two triangles with full sides touching to make a rectangle?”
This standard moves beyond identifying and classifying simple shapes to manipulating two or more shapes to create a new shape. This concept begins to develop as students first move, rotate, flip, and arrange puzzle pieces. Next, students use their experiences with puzzles to move given shapes to make a design (e.g., “Use the 7 tangram pieces to make a fox.”). Finally, using these previous foundational experiences, students manipulate simple shapes to make a new shape.
