During the month of November, Amy Hyde from the U of I Extension and Ag in the Classroom, is teaching Logan County students (Kindergarten - 5th grade) about Turkey farms!

Pictured is Miss Murley's 5th grade class at Northwest School working together to solve their Breakout EDU boxes. This activity is a game with a series of puzzles that students must solve to unlock various locks on a box to reach whatever is placed inside the box.

It teaches the students to how to solve puzzles, work in a team, make connections and think outside the box.

The Logan County Ag in the Classroom program is sponsored by the Agricultural Education Partnership Logan, Menard and Sangamon County and U of I Extension through donations from individuals, businesses and Farm Bureau. If you have any questions about this program you can contact Amy at the Logan County U of I Extension Office at 217-732-8289 or email at amyhyde@ illinois.edu
