These supplemental units of instruction were developed to not only teach students about their place, but to be used as a reference piece by educators within their agricultural classrooms. Each lesson is designed for a 45-minute period and some lessons last for multiple days. The curriculum is designed to last 26 weeks. These lessons involve hands-on activities, are student-centered and require students to think and problem solve on their own. Each lesson is moldable and adaptable to fit specific classrooms and places based upon educators needs. After students are taught these basic environmental science concepts, if they choose to participate in the Envirothon competition, it would be a great way for the students to apply their content knowledge to real life situations.
