Week of 9/18/2018 Ag / FFA Update!

​Good morning families!
 
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I did, because the Gators WON! (Chomp! Chomp!)
 
Our class website is UPDATED! Please check it! ((www.deltonamiddleffa.com)) I try to update it every couple days! So please check it constantly! You can find missing work, archived messages, and photos of events we’ve attended.  Also, Please follow us on our FACEBOOK Page! I post a lot of relevant updates, and things that will help your students, in and out of class. www.facebook.com/deltonamsFFA
 
FUNDRAISER ITEMS TO BE DELIVERED Wednesday 9/26/18!
Please make arrangements for your child to be picked up from school. It is not a wise to make them take it on the bus. We will have an FFA meeting after school until 5:30pm in which you can pick up your child during that time if they are not in FFA.
 
Agriculture Class Update:
This week in class we will be exploring the history of agriculture, and tilling the soil throughout the decades. Students are doing a baiting today and collecting information. Tomorrow we will be switching, and doing some activities with history as well.
 
Test Corrections from last week – if a student wishes to remediate their test. A copy of the test can be found on the class website along with the notes for the students to use. In order for the students to remediate they need to tell me why the got their answer wrong and write the correct answer and circle it.
 
FFA Update:
Next Meeting is Sept. 26th. 2018
 
COLT is Tuesday, September 25. I have one spot left. First student to turn in their $25 will be able to go. We will be meeting at the Volusia County Farm Bureau/4H parking lot ( this is off SR 44, right off i-4, in front of the fairgrounds) at 6:20am. You need to have had breakfast, have money for a snack on the way home. Lunch will be provided and you need to be in official dress. I have FFA Jackets and Scarves/Ties for you to use. But you NEED to be in the rest of official dress. Boys: Black Slacks and White Button Up or Polo, Black Socks, and Black Dress Shoes! Girls: Black Skirt(appropriate length 1-2 inches above the knee) Black Pantyhose, Black Closed Toe Heels, or Flats! We are not sure of our return time, due to I-4 traffic. We will have students call when we are leaving the facility and when we cross over into Seminole County. We will return to the same drop off location.
