On Wednesday, March 20, Farmers Helmut Wagner and Mike Strupp came to visit the 4th grade classes to discuss Agriculture/Farming with our students. They brought some of the tools they use on the farm (the smaller tools), samples of animal feed, seeds, and numerous additional items that are essential to farming. They also emphasized the importance of math, reading and science and the connection these academic areas have in the occupation of farming. All the fourth graders were so focused and demonstrated their great listening and questioning skills. We found it amazing to hear that farming is one of the top 5 most dangerous jobs!
