Can’t get your class to one of our out-of-school programs or want to supplement a program or lesson plan with a fun, engaging activity? We will come to you to facilitate a fun, hands-on curriculum-aligned presentation right in your classroom!
One of our dynamic team members will guide your class through an age-appropriate presentation exploring a relevant aspect of food production. We'll bring all the supplies needed and take care of the mess afterward! Each presentation requires approximately 1 hour of class time. There is no cost to participate in this program.
2025 Classroom Presentations:
Grades K-3: Soil Horizon Snack
Students will explore the layers of soil in a fun and interactive way by creating a soil horizon snack cup. Using pudding, crushed cookies, gummy worms, shredded coconut, and chocolate chips, they will build an edible model that represents different soil layers. Students will also get a hands-on experience planting seeds, which they can take home and observe as they grow, reinforcing their understanding of soil’s role in sustaining plant life.
Grades 4-6: From the Ground Up
This presentation invites students to consider the complexity and significance of farming in Saskatchewan through a highly engaging simulation game. Students learn about the importance of sustainability and gain insight about the many decisions farmers must make throughout the year.
Grades 4-6 and Grades 7-8: The Taco Takeover
Spice up your curriculum! This presentation offers a dynamic, hands-on experience where students will explore the fascinating world of food production. From farm to plate, they'll uncover the origins of their favorite taco ingredients while creating a delicious meal.
