Cane and Corn: The Tale of Two Teachers
 Learn how two teachers,
who met at the National Agriculture in the Classroom Conference,
partnered to create an exciting year-long project for students in
Louisiana and Illinois. Margaret Perret of Louisiana and Julie King
of Illinois, joined "educational forces" to teach their
students about geography, state products, food production and processing,
economics and much more! More than "pen pals," the teachers
swapped strategies for increasing student achievement in mathematics,
reading and writing which culminated in a classroom visit (Julie went
to Louisiana!) and "virtual tour."
