ESMS Ag students recently completed a Pumpkin Unit. Students learned about different types of pumpkins and how they grow. Students also participated in a pumpkin lab where they weighed, measured and floated pumpkins. Afterwards, students cleaned out the pumpkins, and sorted, counted and collected the seeds. Students are drying the seeds and will save them to plant in the spring.
Share love and joy by helping others this Christmas season. If you would like to become one of Santa’s Blue Elves, please bring $25.00 by Thursday, November 16th. You may turn your money into Mrs. Crumley, Mrs. Drawdy or Mrs. Williford.
