Week 1 Agriculture
Instructors:  Dr. Larry Watson

Mr. Frederick and his 6th period Meats class using "GloGerm" along with Mrs. Wayne and her class instructing.

GloGerm is used to simulate ones handwashing effectiveness.  Before the hands have been washed, GloGerm is applied.  Then the hands are washed with soap and water, then dried.  Next, a ultraviolet light is used to detect any areas missed during the handwashing procedure.  As a result of this lab, students discovered that proper handwashing is not as easy as it may seem!
