Randleman Elementary School had Tractor Thursday today. This event was created and planned by Ms. Cullop, our Beginning Teacher, Teacher of The Year. Most of our students were able to make it down to participate and one of our students stated "This is a dream come true".
Cullop: Tractor Thursday has been part of my morning meeting each week to teach students about agriculture and the world around them. I began with a focus on equipment and transitioned into the history and development of machinery through the years. We have learned about crops and the farm-to-table process with a focus on NC crops and what each plant needs to grow. This final tractor Thursday was a celebration of all the students have learned. They also had an opportunity to see tractors and equipment and learn about how people use them. We had visitors from Asheboro Kubota, Xtreme Concrete, Hardy Farms, Askew Lawn Care, and more!
