 == ​ We designed an insect for the second quarter JMG/4-H contest. We had to be creative and come up with an insect that does not exist. Our insect must contain 3 body parts and 6 legs and we had to come up with a name for our insect!!==

 ===We are doing some indoor work due to the cold weather. We will be learning about the food groups and how many servings from each food group we need a day. We will build a restaurant menu with meal options based on the food groups. ===

Found a great website [|www.mypyramid.gov] that explains the food groups and the importance of choosing healthy foods. Some comments from the students:

March 11, 2010 Today we went out to our raised bed and got rid of old plants. We also turned over the soil and fertilized it. We put all old plants in the compost pile. We plan to plant seeds and plants next week.
