AgXplore Middle School (AgX)

Course Description

In AgX, middle school students explore the daily impact of agriculture over 60 days of instruction. AgX introduces students to the plants, resources, energy, and animals we use and consume due to agricultural technologies.

Every lesson includes unique and engaging hands-on activities and projects encouraging student exploration of the agricultural value chain from industry to consumer. In addition, the curriculum includes fresh and personalized assessment tools with laboratories, games, and questioning exercises. Projects throughout the course prepare students for selecting Exploratory SAE projects they can implement after completing the course.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE AgX

"AgX has let my students apply hands-on the concepts that we learn in the classroom. The curriculum is full circle. From production of their garden containers to processing their produce. I love how the students are learning applicable concepts and having fun while they do it!"
