Great Things are happening in Ag class!

There has been a lot going on over the past week in ag classes.  The freshmen have read to both Kindergarten classes and the Kindergarteners have been able to learn about eggs and incubation.  They in turn showed and educated the freshmen class on an Ostrich egg.  The size difference is amazing!!!

Ben Winter has nearly completed a nice little lawn mower trailer.

The welding class has finished their MIG boards for the fair and are putting the finishing touches on electric fence posts that they made.  They now, need to come up with plans on their own for choice projects.  I think the choice projects are always fun to see what the students come up with!

 Vanessa Hiebner is putting the finishing touches on her year long project!  I think it's coming along nicely!!!  What do you think?

The Advanced Ag 1 class has begun a concrete unit!  On Tuesday they did several experiments on aggregates and the effect they have on concrete.

The freshmen are getting ready to begin shop projects.  They had to go over safety procedures for using the gas forge, drill press, etc.  They will get to choose one project from each of three areas: metal, woods, and soldering.  I know they can't wait, and neither can I!!!

On another note:  We have chicks!  The students get just as excited as I am when the chicks are getting ready to hatch!  Thanks to Marcia Traudt for all the eggs she has been bringing us!  By the time they get home to Marcia's house, they are going to be spoiled (but who wouldn't spoil these cute fluffy things?)!
