Go to Spookley website and log in as educators for FREE lesson plans and activity sheets for your classroom!!! Also, Spookley just launched the new Spookley the Square Pumpkin “Stop Bullying Before it Starts” Teacher Toolkit (click here to receive yours).
Classroom in the Corn
Our field trips feature a learning experience focused on life on the farm, with unique, fun, educational activities that expose children to agriculture. Many are combined with farm adventures, such as: corn maze, exploration, wagon rides, etc.
​
Hands-on learning experiences are always best when students have been prepared for what they are about to encounter and are able to then discuss what they learned afterwards. We are pleased to offer our Classroom in the Corn learning series to make your field trip more exciting and memorable … as well as a better learning experience. These Teacher Resource Guides are broken into separate grade ranges and each include: activity goals, National Curriculum Standards, preparation required, materials needed, worksheets, and step-by-step instructions. View a sample of that curriculum.
