Yesterday the Lakota FFA group was invited by Preston Sundeen and Lake Region College to Land Judging Bootcamp. This was a great experience for all that attended! We learned about how to classify types of soil by wetting soil down, making a ball, and seeing if you could make a ribbon with it. We also learned how to determine Slope using a 3 foot method and a 5 foot method. We got to look at 2 different soil pits where we measured top soil, slope, and many other things. We then got to go back to the Kenner Conference room located at lake region state college and go through all our findings. Thank you Preston for putting this on!!!

The 7th Grade class is busy learning about taxonomic groups. Thus far in kingdom Eukarya, we have studied bacteria, fungi, and protists. We also have viruses/bacteriophages in this topic, though they are technically not assigned in a taxonomic domain as they are not classified as living organisms (did you know that??) Here are the very detailed and beautiful drawings we've done in Mrs. Ulland's Life science class. Aren't they the most gorgeous pathogens you've ever seen?!? 😅 Next up...Fungi!
