Misty the Cow Visits García-Leza EC/PK Center Students

Disponible en: Español

Misty the Cow visited García-Leza EC/PK Center to teach students about the dairy industry. The Mobile Dairy Classroom is a traveling milking parlor, featuring a live cow and an oral presentation. The trained instructor showed García-Leza students how to milk a cow. She also described how milk goes from the farm to the consumer. Students also got the chance to ask questions. The program brings the dairy experience directly to children. At schools, students and teachers share an experience that includes math, science, health (nutrition), and agriculture. The Mobile Dairy Classroom is presented in an outdoor classroom format. The Mobile Dairy Classroom is a division of the Southwest Dairy Museum, Inc., a non-profit, educational program funded by dairymen across the Southwest.
