World Dairy Expo School Tour Lesson Plans

The Wisconsin Farm Bureau- Ag in the Classroom Program worked cooperatively with the World Dairy Expo to develop lesson plans that complement the 4th grade classroom tours to World Dairy Expo. The lessons offer a short lesson that can be used on the bus ride back to school or in the next day’s class. The career lesson should be done at World Dairy Expo and offers students the opportunity to interact with the exhibitors, producers and showman at the event. The rest of the lessons use the “Welcome to World Dairy Expo” educational packet that is offered by World Dairy Expo.
