School Enrichment Curriculum
The Texas 4-H & Youth Development Program develops youth utilizing research-based information in creative, diverse, hands-on educational environments. 4-H maximizes each individual's potential through unique partnerships of youth, adult volunteers, university faculty, and community supporters. This results in exciting and innovative experiences for your students.
Texas 4-H offers a variety of school curriculum enrichment materials which can be used with subjects being taught in schools. These 4-H materials have been developed for educators to use in coordinating learning experiences and to provide new classroom lessons for students. We have listed some of our school enrichment materials, most of which focus on Science and Agriculture.
Texas 4-H is the youth development component of the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. Our program materials and teacher guides are developed with assistance from Texas A&M University and the United States Department of Agriculture. Many were written by 4-H and youth development specialists of the Texas AgriLife Extension Service to help teachers meet the criteria of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for various grade levels.
