Tapping into Maple Tradition

NHAITC is developing a comprehensive educational K-12th grade curriculum based on maple production. Lessons will use components of maple production to teach core academic subjects such as science, chemistry, history, economics, language arts, engineering, nutrition, etc. The centerpiece of the project is a video addressing a variety of educational topics involved in the production of maple syrup. A classroom poster compliments the video. From there, we are adding core academic lessons based on maple production. In our workshop, we will explain the project, show the video, discuss some of the lessons and try a few activities.
