SAE Visit 2

 For my second SAE visit, I went to Audrey's family farm where many of my students had their animal projects housed. While I was there, I got to talk with Paige and Aubrey about their Lamb and Hog projects and some of their thoughts on those projects. They were really excited that they all got to pick out their own hogs without adult help at a board sale this year. Audrey, Dakota and Vinnie all have steer projects. With the experience I had with showing steers, We discussed some methods with breaking our steers to lead and some tips and tricks to keep the animals calm while working with them. Audrey was really happy to have a new lean to constructed to house their steers this year. All of these projects will be exhibited at the Lawrence County Fair this summer.

Another thing that I learned is that teaching over zoom, really makes me move through the content quicker than I originally plan for. During my first day, I taught what I had outlined in my first day lesson plan as well as half of the second days instruction. I am very happy that I had ev...
