Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Initial Outcome

With school being closed due to COVID 19, the Expanded Food Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) Assistant wasn’t able to finish her last face-to-face lesson with the 224+ kindergarten students at Walker Early Learning Center and Immanuel Christian Academy.  

The EFNEP Assistant partnered with school principals, teachers, FCS Agent and Fine Arts Assistant to design and implement a Youtube video to cover the final early elementary lesson on dairy.  

Assistant read a dairy book and did a lesson focusing on dairy.  The video lesson reached 110 of her countable contacts. The Fine Arts Assistant prepared an accompanying video on making a sock cow puppet that went along with the book that was read. The EFNEP Assistant & Fine Arts Assistant prepared a grab bag with a Dairy newsletter, dairy fun material and puppet material that could be picked up at the extension office.
