Cultivating Knowledge: Integrating Ag In The Classroom
Friday November 8, 2024 10:10am - 11:00am EST
In today's rapidly changing world, it's essential for young learners to not only grasp core content but also understand the significance of agriculture in our lives. Integrating agricultural literacy into classrooms not only fosters a deeper understanding of where our food comes from but also cultivates valuable skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and environmental awareness. This presentation will highlight SEP instructional strategies for utilizing the Farm Bureau's Ag In The Classroom resources as well as integrating them with curriculum content so that it may strengthen connections and relevance to the real world.

Taking the Plunge into the Science & Engineering Practices
Friday November 8, 2024 1:40pm - 2:30pm EST
In this session, we will examine the skills that scientists and engineers utilize in their work and explore ways to incorporate these with our students. Participants will move through the SEP Circus from the California Academy of Sciences. In each station participants will experience a different science and engineering practice. After reflecting on the stations, there will be time for collaboration and discussion regarding adjustments to make when lesson planning to incorporate the SEPs.
