ABSTRACT INFORMATION
'Driving STEM - The Super Soybean Car'

Ever get in a car and wonder…am I sitting on soybeans? Henry Ford thought you should! Learn from the folks at Ford how you can fascinate students with how much of a car is made of renewable, recycled, and repurposed resources! Then the American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture will walk you through how to incorporate hands on lessons so students can explore more. You will leave with a whole range of resources to engage students in history, language arts, to science and beyond.
