Ag Awareness Week!

Posted Date: 03/22/2024

LISD celebrated Ag Awareness Week this week as spring began! Texas Farm Bureau sent reading teachers their book of the year: How To Grow A Monster by Kiki Thorpe. It wasn't about a monster, of course, but a giant zucchini plant that finally won the county fair competition! You could find students learning about plants everywhere all week. Some teachers expanded on the science lesson in the story by planting plants or watching plants grow. Some heard the book read by Kiki Thorpe through a digital link. Young and old learned vocabulary words like harvest and pollination and a new meaning of monster. Everyone learned a little more about gardening. We found a rabbit that even got in on the action. This was a great way to focus on Ag Awareness Week & Levelland ISD sends out a huge thank you to Texas Farm Bureau for the books & lesson ideas. We appreciate the connection we make with Farm Bureau!
