This week, we adapted lessons and activities for a DayHab session on eating healthy snacks. We worked hard to bring this session to life with 10 friends from the Village Northwest community. The participants learned a lot and had a great time making snacks, especially when they got to use our bicycle blender to make a strawberry banana smoothie. We also made peanut butter “Energy Bites.”
On Wednesday, we traveled to Sioux City for the 5 Behaviors of a Cohesive Team professional development training. We got to know ISU Extension and Outreach employees from all over Northwest Iowa.
We had the opportunity to meet with Fred Hall and Leah TenNapel about what it means to be an ISU Extension and Outreach Specialist so that someday we might choose to live this dream. Fred Hall, the Dairy Specialist, provided a demonstration that has ingrained in our minds how quickly a cow regurgitates its cud.
We ended the week with advice on the Hull Museum Exhibit from a team of design specialists. Our next steps for the exhibit project are research, in-depth brainstorming, and mock-up design. We have exciting ideas in the works.
