Dynamic Dairy Carnival "Students “Mooved” through ten stations learning about dairy nutrition." Mrs. Schmitt’s Foods II high school students decided to create an event for the New Hampton preschoolers for their PBL (Project Based Learning Project). “How do you teach preschool students about dairy?” The two-sections of Foods II students came up with a Dairy Carnival as a way for students to learn about dairy nutrition. The Dairy Carnival had 33 high school students, 55 preschoolers, and 22 staff; totaling 110 people at the event! Jessica Rochford from the Chickasaw Farm Bureau’s Outreach Coordinator donated dairy coloring books and her time to help during the event. The students “Mooved” through 10 stations learning about dairy nutrition. The Foods II students came up with a carnival game about dairy nutrition, name of the game on a poster, skills learned, materials needed, and rules of the game. Prizes were given at each station donated by Midwest Dairy Supplies and some were purchased with grant money. Let the fun begin! The students were asked different questions at each station then they were able to play the games and get a prize. The stations were: Get the Scoop (ice cream cone ping pong), Guess the Gadget (matching antique dairy gadgets with the picture they were used for), Milk the Cow (students were able to milk a cow’s udder to get the milk out), Tic Tac Toe Dairy (when answered correctly they placed an X or O), Cow Craft (decorated a Holstein, Beef Short-Horn, & Highland cows), Dairy Taste-Testing (vanilla & chocolate pudding, smoothies, & cheese curds), Pin the Tail on the Cow (able to play after answer questions about dairy nutrition), Milk Toss (tossed a bean bag at dairy jugs after answering questions), Race to the Creamery (a car mat with three creamery trucks and at every stop sign you needed to answer a question), and Spot the Dairy (you chose the dairy products out of the toy food assortment). “This was a fun way for the preschoolers to learn about dairy and the high school students were amazing interacting so kindly with the little ones. They don’t realize they are learning by teaching!” stated Mrs. Schmitt. “The Dairy Taste-Testing and the cool cow sunglasses were the biggest hit, but I think seeing all of the smiling faces learning was “Moosic” to my ears.” said Mrs. Schmitt.

There will be a representative from NICC at our Career/Opportunity Fair next week on March 12 that will be available to help with any FAFSA questions. Students do not need to be planning to attend NICC in order to receive assistance with this. You WILL need to have your FSA ID created/approved before they can assist you, so if you do not have this done already, you can do that here: https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch

The Spanish III students are using their drama skills in class by acting out scenes from a story being read which practices this unit of vocabulary. The story was about 2 octopi trying to escape being caught and eaten. The vocabulary includes: 'approached' and 'saw that there was', and adds more past tense learning.
