School Calendar

		We cannot underscore the importance of a public that is informed and educated about agriculture. The NYFB Foundation has developed a School Calendar for distribution to third grade classrooms around the state, as a vehicle to provide agricultural education at an early age. The calendar is designed to ensure that children not only learn about agriculture, but learn to enjoy it as well! This School Calendar showcases a different commodity each month. The pages include a commodity specific picture, daily facts and an activity for classroom participation. Feedback received from teachers indicates that use of the calendar has increased the coverage of agriculturally related topics in the classroom. FREE to third grade classes Available at $5.00 per copy
