Our Mobile Dairy Classroom instructors put forth a big effort to teach elementary students about how milk gets from the cow to the container. Most have to get up very early in order to have time to drive to the dairy, pick up the cow and calf in time to get to school. Each instructor has their own style. Some are humorous in their approach, others use a narrative or historical approach but they all are effective in delivering their message in a way that is understandable to elementary students.

And nothing is more rewarding than knowing their work was well received. We greatly appreciate all of the many wonderful thank you cards that are received. If you come into one of the Dairy Council offices, you will find student thank you cards on our walls!
 
“The students in our area are surrounded by dairies, but most have never been able to learn or see anything about them; until now. Your program is wonderful! Thank you again.” -- Kindergarten teacher, Bret Harte Elem

“Students learned all about cows (bovines) about milk and about other biology and science related issues!  Teachers will use this experience to introduce a comprehensive unit on student health and nutrition to begin in May!” -- From Calabasas Elem school blog
 
“Students at Bay View today watched a moo-ving assembly today.  Through the help of the Dairy Council of California, two Holstein dairy cows, Ellie and Della visited the school campus and transformed the playground into an urban farm”. -- From Bay View Elem blog
