Fresh Corn vs Popped Corn
Posted by Ann Palm
During our farm unit PreK-4 visited Patty Popp’s farm. It was a beautiful fall day to see Patty Popp’s “office,” as she called it. One of the children said but it’s outside! Patty replied yes and it’s wonderful! We saw her garden and many vegetables growing and met her new pigs. We learned that popcorn is different than corn on the cob. The children took the kernels off the cob and popped the corn to make popcorn. We all agreed it was delicious!
After we returned from the farm we had another special snack. The children husked and microwaved fresh corn. We compared it with popcorn and agreed that the popcorn kernel was much harder compared to the fresh corn and the taste was totally different. When voting for their favorite, guess which corn won!
