Sticker designs wanted for National Ag Day
Wisconsin Ag in the Classroom, is encouraging students in pre-k through 12th grade, to participate in a sticker designing activity, to celebrate National Ag Day. National Ag Day will be celebrated nationwide March 23.
Because of anticipated COVID-19 restrictions, many celebrations and activities are planned virtually.
The theme for Ag Day 2021, is “Food brings everyone to the table.” Students are asked to draw a picture related to this theme, to be used on a sticker sheet. The drawings can portray different kinds of foods the student likes; what farmers, processors and others do to bring food from the “farm to table”; or fun facts about food.
Wisconsin Ag in the Classroom has developed a page that is designed so the images can be printed on a halfpage sticker sheet. Students and teachers may consider using the stickers in their local community. Some ideas include attaching them to carry-out bags from local restaurants, pizza boxes, grocery store bags and take-home packets for students.
This year’s activity will not be judged, but those who share a submission will be entered into a drawing to win prizes. Entries must be postmarked by March 31.
There are three grade level groups: pre-k through third grade, fourth through eighth grade and ninth through 12th grade. Through a random drawing, 10 entries from each age category will receive a $10 Culver’s gift card. All entries will receive Ag in the Classroom resources.
