  • Bringing Science & Technology to the AgriScience Classes

    Funded Aug 30, 2017

    Thank you for the donation to addition of NeuLog devices and sensors to the New Lisbon AgriScience Department. Being able to test for quality soil during our science experiments has been fun and educational, something that we haven't seen in our classroom in a long time. The science "tools" we were donated allow us to explore science in a way we have never seen before. We are preparing ourselves for college by being able to experiment with and use these devices. We enjoy coming to school and class now because of the possibility to explore in science each day!

    This week were were able to test soil pH with our sensor. We are able to explore conductivity within soil by using the conductivity sensor and adding Miracle Grow fertilizer to the soil. We are able to make connections to class lectures because of these tools now! Thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Dorn

  • AgriScience Shop Tool Upgrade

    Funded Dec 15, 2016

    My students have been using the new tools to reassemble their engine projects in the shop class. By having multiple sets of tools, students are not sharing as often and they are able to reassemble the engine at a faster pace.

    My students were excited to have these new tools. They all said it has made the semester project of reassembling of their assigned engine easier. Future classes will be able to use the tool sets purchased during future classes.

    As we finish out the semester, students have been able to complete reassembly of more engines than in prior years. The tool kits have replaced many damaged tools from the class.

    Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Dorn

  • Small Engines Text and Dial Calipers

    Funded Nov 12, 2016

    My students have been using the new dial calipers to measure various circumferences on parts of their engines. This allows them to order new parts when necessary because they know the exact sizes. Prior to this year, students were not able to completely fix their engines because they could not order new parts when necessary.

    My students were excited to have these new tools. They all said it has made the semester project of diagnosing the problem of their assigned engine easier. Future classes will be able to use the dial calipers during the measuring unit not after now. The diagrams in the text book have helped with reassembly of many engines.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Dorn

The small engine text book will assist with additional learning and reference materials for the class. While doing various engine repairs the students will need access to dial calipers to make sure the correct part is used. The saying, "tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember, but involve me and I will learn" is used on a regualr basis in my classroom. Using hands on laboratories and experiences ensures that students get the quality education they need to ensure success in real world situations. The hope is they leave my classroom college and career ready.
