How does the Farms for City Kids program integrate into the children’s normal school curriculum?
New teachers to the program attend an orientation at the Farm where‚ along with farm staff‚ they brainstorm ideas for integrating farm–related topics into their curriculum. All teachers are encouraged to introduce “farm facts” and related lessons to the children prior to their visit to the Farm. Farm experiences can be integrated into science‚ math‚ history and social studies lessons.
