| Ag on the Go (2in1): Crawly Critters & Can You Dig It |
Join Educators from the Pennsylvania Friends of Agriculture Foundation for an "Ag on the Go" program.
Crawly Critters
Students learn how to identify insects, as well as recognize that not all insects are pests. Students simulate the communication methods of insects and learn how farmers can sometimes use this knowledge to control insects in their fields without harmful chemicals.
Can You Dig It
Students will investigate the difference between soil and dirt. Students will hear about the process of bedrock becoming top soil. The students will then become soil scientists and dig for samples of things that can be found in the topsoil layer, matching them to pictures and counting what they find.
The program is for ages 6-8 and will consist of two 35 minute hands-on activities while they are introduced to basic agricultural concepts. Students will also have 45 minutes of open play on the first floor of Keystone Kidspace.
