FoodCorps Welcomes Inaugural Cohort of Kindred Fellows
Coming Soon: Food Education Microcredential
Bring food education into your classroom! This summer, FoodCorps is launching a six-week, online microcredential in partnership with Teachers College, Columbia University to train K-5 teachers in providing science-backed experiential food education. Share your email and we'll send you more information when enrollment opens!
The FoodCorps Lessons include hands-on experiential activities to engage kids in learning about nourishing food. These lessons are for grades K-5, and are organized by grade, season, and theme. The lessons are tied to national academic standards and were developed following best practices and frameworks.
Each lesson was developed with input from FoodCorps members, community partners, and resource specialists, and has been evaluated and updated to reflect recommendations from our community of food educators. This suite of lessons is intended to guide food and garden educators to spark inquiry and love for nourishing food and can be adapted to reflect student needs.
