February Ag In The Classroom lesson
Moultrie County students had a “sweet” time learning how chocolate is made with Ag in the Classroom in February. Students learned where it all begins by getting to see and hold a real cacao pod. Ag Literacy Coordinator, Amanda Sanner, said that students really enjoyed this lesson, especially the chocolate taste test at the end. Illinois Ag in the Classroom is a working partnership involving agriculture, agribusiness, and agricultural education to provide Illinois educators and students with resources that will help them understand the role of a vital agriculture in their lives and society.
