Our Ag. Science classes learned all about flowers and how pollination works last week with their hands-on pollination lab. They mimicked pollen by using Cheeto puffs and pretending they were bees by going from flower to flower with the Cheeto puff dust. This helped the students visualize how pollination works. Then, they were able to eat some Cheeto puffs after they completed the lab. The students loved it and had a great time!
