Integrated Elementary School Education
Based on feedback from Maine elementary school educators, in order to best address food system education, we must apply these teachings in multiple modes. We have, with the help of Maine elementary teachers and their students, developed an integrated program with curriculum guides for the classroom, garden and specialty classes, and for the cafeteria.
We currently have material available for preschool and ages k-5, and will soon be adding high school food system curriculum to our website as well. Click each of the images below to browse these available resources:
