Members help with Ag in the Classroom

On Friday, November 20th, Nicole Martens and Monica Wahl assisted Clara Wichert (FBW) with her Ag in the classroom project, Pumpkin Pie in a Bag. This project was done with the 3rd graders at Cornelson Elementary in Fairview. The kids had a blast, not only did they make and eat their own pie, they made perdictions about the weight of the pumpkin, the circumference of the pumpkin and how many seeds there were in the pumpkin. After they ate their dessert, they all took a turn putting their hands inside the pumpkin and pulling out a few seeds.









The recipe was simple : 1. Take a small baggie and add 2. 1/8 cup of milk 3. 1 tablespoon of vanilla instant pudding 4. a dash of pumpkin pie spice 5. and 2 scoops of pumpkin pie mix from a can. You have the kids mix it by squeezing the baggie until all ingredients are mixed well. Have a small cup with gram cracker grounds on the bottom. Cut the corner out of the baggie so that the children can squeeze their pie filling into the cup and add cool whip to the top. Most of the kids truly enjoyed their yummy, made by themselves, Pumpkin Pie!
