Thank You Farms Kit
Where does our food come from? How does a plant become a t-shirt? Why is a drought such a big deal? This kit answers these questions and more through lessons, books, and activities based around agriculture. Students will learn more about how their food is grown on farms and the processing of farm goods. Over a dozen activities for texture exploration, visual learning, and hands-on math are brought right to your classroom through this free rentable kit!
Allergen Alert: this kit contains soybean, barley, corn, and animal fibers (wool). Please be aware of this when handling all items in the kit.
