ACES- Agricultural Communications Establishes Success





 


 Now, don't they look sharp!!

We started out our venture to ACES bright and early Saturday morning (6 am departure) on a school bus shared with Laural FFA.  It was a great trip and these kids are a great group. 

 

What did I learn....

* Students will be more awake than you early in the morning!

* Have some emergency funds of your own for trips!  We didn't have any issues but this came from conversation with Mr. Harold from Laurel.  They got stuck at Farm Show due to cold temperatures and since the school was closed he had to pay for the extra night and wait to be reimbursed.


* Know your kids, if you take students that you can trust everything runs smoothly.





* Always look at everything as a chance to teach.. The students were mesmerized by the vibrating water.
We discussed how this can be linked to science; what a cool interest approach!!
      


*It was a great trip, we ran into bad weather coming home but we made it everyone made it home safely.

  1. Mindy,
    The captions look great, but I am having trouble seeing the pictures. Hopefully it is just me, because I am sure the photos are fine.
