I am so excited to be part of the teaching team for Tonto NRCD Ag Daze. This is an amazing group and I am honored to have been asked to participate. I have just completed my lesson on Cotton (I will post a link later) and will present the dairy module beginning this week to 16 classes of fourth grade elementary students in Gila County Arizona. It will be topped off the third week in April with AG DAZE, a day at H4 Ranch owned by Bill and Lori Brown, home of Brownsville Western Heritage where students will apply the 7 modules they have participated in to a real Ranch, Farming and Mining situation. They will watch round-up of cows and calves, branding, tagging and vaccination. Since David and I have to return to Utah before Ag Daze, I can't say everything about it but I've heard it's awesome!
Hopefully, you can copy or save the crossword puzzle and it will print on a regular size paper. I don't have a printer here so let me know if it doesn't.
In the classroom we will show two videos
Where Baby Dairy Calves Come From
and
City Slickers- The Udder Story
