Would you like to give your students some practical applications in basic math, the metric system, nutrition, and scientific method? How about introducing them to agronomy, anatomy, animal science, aquaculture, chemistry, ecology, engineering, entomology, evolution, food processing, forestry, horticulture, hydroponics, microbiology, physics, and physiology? Then Gee Whiz in Agriculture is for you! This series of programs on agricultural topics is designed to fit the 4th- and 5th-grade science curriculum and meets specific education reform objectives in science and math. With the help of professionals and 10-year-old “experts,” Gee Whiz also presents the numerous career opportunities in our nation’s largest industry and shows that agriculture today is much more than milking cows and planting corn.

Gee Whiz in Agriculture is presented by the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service, Kentucky State University, the USDA, AG-SAT, and KET.
