We are only $200 away from our $1200 goal for the 2012-13 school year! I know we can beat our goal before school gets out on June 6th. Please turn all your Box Tops before the end of the month so they will count towards our goal!

Make sure your student’s name and teacher is written on the submission so they get credit for the Box Tops.

Keep collecting Box Tops over the summer! That will give Lantern Lane a great start towards our goal of $1500 for the 2013-14 school year.

Woo Hoo! Keep up the awesome job collecting those Box Tops!

Lantern Lane Youngsters take part in Mobile Dairy Classroom

FORT BEND ISD – Students at Lantern Lane Elementary School took part in an exciting, outdoor learning experience provided by Southwest Dairy Museum, Inc., a non-profit educational program funded by dairymen across the Southwest. Through its mobile dairy classroom, the museum introduces students to the dairy industry by providing a learning experience that incorporates math, science, nutritional health and agriculture in an outdoor classroom format.

 

Mobile Dairy Classroom instructor, L. P. Voskamp, led the students in a presentation that included a tour of his traveling milking parlor that housed an actual cow, a milking demonstration, lessons on the characteristics and anatomy of dairy cows, and the importance of dairy for good health. Voskamp concluded his presentation with a question-and-answer session.
