In Iowa Ag, students learned about different livestock breeds by researching, painting, and creating cardboard models of their selected breed along with clue cards featuring the breed’s origin, characteristics, and fun facts.
To finish the activity, students walked around the classroom guessing the breeds their classmates created. It was a fun and creative way to learn more about the diversity of livestock in agriculture!
See if you can guess the breeds...

Today the 4th graders went to the Grundy County Fairgrounds to participate in Progressive Agriculture Safety Day. We learned about animal safety, coping skills, lawnmower safety, gun safety, first aid, farm safety, fire safety, sun safety, electrical safety, grain bin safety, and emergency plans. These are pictures from Mrs. Abbas's group.

Tonight is the night!

Calling all 8th-11th graders 🚨🚨 Informational cheer meeting. If you are interested we will be meeting during X-Block for high schoolers and I will meet with the 8th graders during their high school visit on 5/18

Fourth grade SAIL has put in the time creating their own business from brainstorming ideas, constructing marketing research by interviewing staff and students, creating a building blueprint, constructing a letter, creating a logo and business card. Lastly, they created questions for Matt and Megan Roelfs, local business owners. The students enjoyed a treat and learned and asked questions about how Chairish Life and Iowa Steel Masters started up. After that, the kids went behind the scenes of Iowa Steel Masters to see it in action. A big thank you goes out to the Roelfs for taking time out of their busy schedules to give these students the opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship!

The FFA Chapter took a field trip, industry tour to two different places!
Our Juniors/Seniors went to Marshalltown to see Emerson Manufacturing to explore job opportunities at Emerson. They also went to Grundy County Conservation to talk about the history of farming in our area as well as natural resources.
Freshmen/Sophomore members headed to Ames where they got to visit Iowa State University. The stops included Horticulture Research Station to talk about horticulture, Swine and Sheep Research Farms about animal science, and lastly Jack Trice Stadium to talk about turf management.
Both groups enjoyed bowling at Wayward Social (Marshalltown) & at Perfect Games (Ames)
Thank you to the business and groups that were involved in helping make this field trip great at both Marshalltown and Iowa State!
