Annual Report 2019 Connecting Kids and Agriculture Hello! Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan (AITC-SK) is a registered charity dedicated to connecting kids and agriculture through innovative, experiential, curricu- lum-based programs and resources. At AITC-SK we are building a Saskatchewan community that understands, appreciates and respects agriculture. “First of all, AITC has been an absolutely incredible resource for my classroom! The excitement for learning that it has cultivated in my students has been inspiring to me! We have accessed about 10 different 71,000 types of AITC resources this year and Students all of them have been incredible.” – Kirsten Tucker, South Corman Park School 11 Teacher 14 Conventions Teacher PD Sessions & Workshops 7,641 Followers +34% 581,047 Reach 38,229 Engagement 22,686 Website Users 83,569 Website Page Views 327,000 Learning hours 241 623 Communities Schools * Every year, our program offerings change slightly due to funding availability and partner priorities. * Funding for farm tours was very limited in 2019. Seed Survivor, a partnership program with Nutrien, was only offered in Spring in 2019. * We track the statistics as carefully as we can to eliminate overlap in our total count. However, this is not possible for events/program that are not registration only such as Ag in the City, Children's Festival and Western Development Museum public days for Explore AG. 2019 was an inspiring year! We gave thousands of students’ meaningful experiences with food and agriculture. Planting a seed, digging in the soil, harvesting a crop, feeding a cow, preparing a meal – these types of experiences help students to understand, appreciate, and respect farmers and agriculture. In 2019, the AITC-SK team worked incredibly hard, delivering resources and programs to 241 communities across Saskatchewan. We could not have done this without the involvement and support of our sponsors, partners, volunteers and board members. Last year, we increased our focus on teachers. We hosted different professional development experiences for teachers to give them the tools and knowledge to confidently bring agricultural learning into their everyday teach- ings. We are inspiring teacher champions who are helping us tell Saskatchewan's incredible food story! The momentum from last year is driving us through the global pandemic we face. The innovative ideas of our staff, our focus on creating memorable experiences, and strong teacher connections have helped us to adapt to the changing educational needs in our province. We are more committed than ever to agriculture education in Saskatchewan, and will ensure that our support for teachers, students and parents continues to evolve. We look forward to sharing our virtual offerings with you in next year’s report. Until then, stay healthy and safe!

Little Green Sprouts is a small-scale gardening program that focuses on growing micro-greens, lettuce and herbs while still offering ample learning opportuni- ties for young students. Both programs offer students the opportunity to learn about where their food comes from. By being directly responsible for growing and harvesting food, students have a better understanding, appreciation and respect for the food they eat. “Being a Green Sprouts classroom has been one of the best additions to my classroom this year.

Students explore how food is lost or wasted throughout the food value chain, and what the agriculture industry is currently doing to reduce loss and waste. The resource includes a fun activity to see what type of taster students are, and how their personal tastes and actions could contribute to reducing food waste. At the end of their learning, students take the 'Food Waste Pledge' where they vow to follow five action items that will help them personally reduce food waste. “The slide show was the best part of the presentation. It had so many good visuals and great information.” -Bertha Harvey, Wadena Elementary School “Agriculture is more than just farming.” - Grade 7/8 student, Lumsden School, when asked what they New! learned from the game.
