California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom
A nonprofit educational foundation that provides educational resources and training for teachers to use agriculture as an integration theme throughout kindergarten through grade 12 curricula.
Teachers may view and download many resources from the California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom's website (www.cfaitc.org) including lesson plans, comprehensive classroom units, videos, a resource guide, and the Cream of the Crop newsletter. Most programs are specific to California but a limited number are adaptable to other states. Lesson plans can be used as vehicles for teaching Content Standards for California Public Schools. The Foundation encourages classroom integration of agriculture to increase the understanding of its vital role in our lives. This is encouraged through hands-on activities that reinforce concepts in science/environment, mathematics, English/language arts, history/social science, health/nutrition, physical education, and visual and performing arts.
