This integrated resource package, sponsored by the Agriculture in the Classroom Foundation, has been prepared for, and by, teachers of primary children. It provides twenty activities for a theme study of seeds, extending the material into all areas of the curriculum.
In this hands-on unit for the study of soils, students will learn about land forms, geology, biology, and the physical process of weathering, sedimentation and capillarity of soil. The connection between soil conservation/degradation and agriculture is explored, clearly demonstrating the importance of soil to the production of food.
