Early Years Foundation Stage Framework Links: • Understanding the World: the World: 'Children Know About Similarities and Di Farm Animals - Pre-School and EYFS Early Years Foundation Stage Framework links: Understanding the world: The world: ‘Children know about similarities and differences between living things. They make observations of animals and explain why some things occur, and talk about changes’ (Department for Education, 2014). Health and self-care: ‘Children know the importance for good health of physical exercise, and a healthy diet, and talk about ways to keep healthy and safe’ (Department for Education, 2014). Using the Farm to support this topic Take your students to visit a variety of the animals around the farm. Discuss the following points: What noise does the animal make? Can you hear it make a sound? Can you make the same sound? How many legs does each animal have? How big is the animal? Compare to other animals- is it as big as a cow? As big as a goat? Is it as big as you? What is the biggest animal on the farm? What is the smallest? What do the animals smell like? Why is washing your hands important? Pointers for teachers Look out for the following animals around the farm: Sheep Goats Breeds: Castlemilk Moorit, Greyface Dartmoor, Breeds: Bagot, Anglo Nubian, British Alpine, English, Whiteface Woodland, Balwen, Herdwick, Jacob, Golden Guernsey, Pygmy, Boer.

Suggested Classroom activities The following resources and discussion points can be used before or after your visit. Discuss and listen to the sounds children might hear at farm. What sounds do different animals make? What sound does machinery (e.g. a tractor) make? Sing songs such as ‘Old McDonald’ and ‘Baa Baa Black Sheep’ to encourage children to think about the animals they will meet, prior to a visit. Practice reading and writing the names of different animals. Worksheet: Animal Match Up. Students can either draw lines to match up the animals, or colour in the animals that are the same. This activity encourages students to identify similarities and comparisons between animals. Worksheet: How many legs? Students should write in the boxes how many legs they think each animal has. This activity encourages students to compare animals, as well as using numeracy skills. Worksheet: Who is the biggest? This is a match up activity. The pictures can be pre-cut or students can do this; they can then order the animals by size. The activity encourages students to draw comparisons and use language such as ‘bigger’, ‘smaller’, ‘greater than’. The pictures could also be sorted into ear size, or grouped in to types of fur/body covering.

  • Review on Goat Milk Composition and Its Nutritive Value
    Journal of Nutrition and Health Sciences Volume 3 | Issue 4 ISSN: 2393-9060 Review Article Open Access Review on Goat Milk Composition and its Nutritive Value Getaneh G*, Mebrat A, Wubie A and Kendie H University of Gondar, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Unit of Biomedical Science, Ethiopia *Corresponding author: Getaneh G, University of Gondar, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Unit of Biomedical Science, Ethiopia, E-mail: [email protected] Citation: Getaneh G, Mebrat A, Wubie A, Kendie H (2016) Review on Goat Milk Composition and Its Nutritive Value. J Nutr Health Sci 3(4): 401. doi: 10.15744/2393-9060.3.401 Received Date: August 19, 2016 Accepted Date: November 21, 2016 Published Date: November 23, 2016 Abstract Goat milk is an important nutrient for humans, especially who have problem of lactose intolerance and sensitive to other animals’ milk. Goat milk is composed of different usable nutrients which are important to their young and humans. Among those important nutrients that are found in goat milk are fat, protein, lactose, vitamins, enzymes and mineral salts. Most of the components of goat milk are greater than that of other milk producing animals. For instance, goat’s milk contains 25% more vitamin B6, 47% more vitamin A and 13% more calcium than cow’s milk. However, available information concerning goat milk is mainly limited to data on its gross composition, and information on the nutritional quality of goat milk, especially important nutritional constituents are scarce. In addition, cultural beliefs challenge the reputation of the advantage of goat milk consumption and the development of the sector, especially in developing countries.

Campus, St. Augustine, Trinidad,.W.I.) SUMMARY Data on some production parameters were collected from four breeds of goats reared intensively on the Government Farm, St. Joseph, Trinidad. All animals were raised indoors. Kids were weaned from their dams within 24 hours of _birth, followed by bucket-feeding of whole goats' milk up to 12 weeks of age. In addition, the kids were fed on a commercial dairy ration and forages. The parameters determined for each breed were birth weight, weight at 12 weeks of age, average daily gain from birth to 12 weeks of age, sex ratios, prolificacy, breeding efficiency and mortality rates. The mean birth weight of Anglo Nubian, Saanen, Toggenburg, and British Alpine kids were 3.25, 2. 88,. 3.36 and 3.68 kg, respectively: Males weighed 3.37 kg and females 3.07 kg. The mean birth weight of singles, twins and triplets were 3.51, 3. 14 and 2.90 kg, respectively. The mean weight at 12 weeks of age were. 10.72, 11.47, 11.89 and 13.81 kg for Anglo Nubian, Saanen, Toggenbttrg and British Alpine, respectively. At the same age, males weighed 12.89 kg and females 10.21 kg. The 12-week weights. of singles, twins and triplets were .11.62, 11.32 and 10.90 kg, respectively.
