7th Grade Earth Science students learned about topography maps and elevation by creating their own clay mountains and using dental floss to cut out different elevations. They used these levels to draw their own topography map showing the elevation of their mountain .
On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, students participated in WVU STEAM TAC activities that involved building a simulated earthquake “shake” table, programming microbits with a coding program, and designing a structure that would withstand a level 4 earthquake. Students were completely engaged in the activity and really seemed to enjoy it.

Yesterday, 12 Monroe County FFA students in the Animal Production classes, and members of the FFA Stockman's teams had the pleasure attending a small ruminant workshop at the Willowbend Ag Innovation Center. While there they were able to see and take part in a sheep shearing demonstration, sheep handling, and also gathered fecal samples that they in turn were able to analyze using microscopes to determine parasite load. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to handle sheep and learn how to better care for their animals. Unfortunately, we were not able to stay all day but look forward to being part of future workshops at the farm!
