Celebrate the Centennial with the Arizona Ag Mag
The Arizona Farm Bureau Agriculture in the Classroom Program has created an Arizona Ag Mag (Agricultural Magazine) for kids! The four-page full color publication teaches students about the importance of the Arizona Five C's not only today but at Arizona's Statehood in 1912. A classroom set (30) is available at no charge to teachers across the state. To order your classroom set contact Katie Aikins at 480.635.3608 or katieaikins@azfb.org.

PERCEPTIONS HAVE CHANGED
Agriculture in the Classroom (AITC) and the University of Arizona teamed up for a research project to see what local high school students know about agriculture. The presentation was given by AITC and students that participated were asked to take a pre, post and delayed-post questionnaire. Take a look at what we found!
