Primary Teachers

Welcome to a new online resource designed especially for teachers. Our goal is to help you easily implement agriscience into the classroom at any grade level. Learn more about plant growth and get free activities by clicking on the links in the menu at the left. We hope that you will give us feedback about any curriculum or experiments you try in your classroom!

The "Know More..." section is background knowledge. Each of the experiments comes complete with four components:

• Materials needed
• Experiment outline
• Resources
• Alignment to the Kansas Science Standards
