First grade had an apple-solutely fun week! Our students learned about apples through experiments, enjoyed some tasty apple treats, and learned about Johnny Appleseed. What a sweet way to learn! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

AG Week learning was extra sweet in Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Tabitha’s class! Students used cookies and pudding to model the different layers of soil. ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

Ms. Hallie’s 4th grade scientists got a little dirty this week as we learned where our food really begins! Students explored soil horizons, learned about the different layers of soil, and discovered how soil plays an important role in growing the food we eat. To make our learning a little more “delicious,” we even created our own edible soil profiles! Students had so much fun building the different layers while putting their new knowledge to the test. We loved connecting science, agriculture, and hands-on learning while learning more about the journey from dirt to delicious 🌱🐴❤️ #MustangPride #allinforagweek

We love our farmers at MVES!! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

First grade is learning all about apples! For All In for Ag Week, Mrs. Shepherd’s class watched a video of Representative Jared Bauman reading The Apple Orchard Riddle. Before watching, students predicted what shape they would find inside an apple and how many seeds it would have. After the characters solved the riddle in the book, Mrs. Shepherd cut open an apple so the class could make the same discovery for themselves! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

Mrs. Michelle Martin’s science class learned about dairy farming today with a little cheese tasting! Students became scientists as they used their senses to observe different kinds of cheese before trying them. Thank you to our MVES cafeteria ladies for helping with supplies and to Mrs. Casaundra for preparing the individual cups! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

For All In for Ag week Mr. Brown and Ms. Kandace’s class went on a virtual field trip to an apple orchard. We learned about what a farmer needs to grow apples and how to harvest them. Afterwards, students made apple butter and got to try it on a biscuit and some of their very own homemade butter.

Hats off to AG! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

Ms. Hallie’s 4th Grade Science class went on a virtual field trip to Meade Tractor in Madison County! Students got an inside look at farm equipment, how these big machines work, and the important role safety plays on the farm. They got to see equipment in action, learn about all the buttons and controls, and hear from Commissioner Jonathan Shell, Commissioner Robbie Fletcher, a farm equipment expert, and a young professional working in the agriculture industry. It was such a fun, hands-on way to connect what we’re learning in the classroom to the real world! ❤️🐴🖤 #MustangPride #allinforagweek

Ms. Paige, our PRI coordinator, has been keeping our Mustangs busy with after-school groups! LEGOs, playdough, and slime have given students a fun opportunity to create, explore, and spend time together.

Second Grade Field Trip to Haney’s Apple Orchard Mr. Scarbro’s, Mrs. Charon’s, Mrs. Caitlin’s, and Mrs. Tressie’s second grade classes enjoyed a beautiful day at Haney’s Apple Orchard!
