STEAM Your Way Into the Classroom
Learn how one school teamed up with their state Ag in the Classroom Program to literally bring Agriculture into the Classroom. Participants will see how the program matched all grade levels with individual farmers and ranchers across the state for an interactive pen-pal program that included letters, classroom visits and Skype field trips. Participants will see the results of this school-wide curriculum effort that provided the most successful quarter-long STEAM Event in the school’s history. Participants will leave with a “How to Guide” so that they can create their own STEAM success!
