Middle School Ag literacy

Author: Trever Cole

Planning Unit: Mason County CES

Major Program: Agriculture

Plan of Work: Livestock and the Environment

Outcome: Initial Outcome

With ever growing disconnect between consumers and the processes to grow the food they consume, Ag literacy has become more important than ever. For the Middle school i have partnered with the Agriculture teacher there to offer hands on learning to the class ranging from ear tagging demonstrations to using KY Kate to demonstrate how a cow is milked with accompanying insight into the dairy industry. Through this the classes have demonstrate an initial increase in level of agricultural understanding.
