We will show teachers how to look at their current curriculum through an “agricultural” lens using age-appropriate literature. The presentation will also demonstrate how to incorporate agricultural products into Science projects and experiments and how to develop Writing lessons based on these experiments. We will show teachers how to use agriculture as a theme and work their core curriculum around it in a project-based approach. Workshop Session (all workshops will be one hour) | |
