We apologize for any inconvenience; the standards and benchmarks shown below are based on 2010 session offerings and do not reflect the most current Ohio state science standards. Please bear with us as we work to update this listing to reflect new sessions offered in 2011 as well as the state's new science standards. In the mean time, this should help you determine what sessions might be most age appropriate for your classes and grades.

The following
sessions have
not yet been
evaluated for
content
standards:

The science standards referenced above are taken from the state of Ohio's academic science content standards for grades k-12. OARDC makes no guarantee that the standards listed will be explicitly covered in the above-mentioned sessions at the Science of Agriculture workshop; however, we feel these sessions readily offer the potential for an engaged teacher to make the appropriate connections to these standards with his or her students based upon the content and activities of the session.
