Grades K–8 (Kit)
Bring the wheat field to your classroom! Each wheat bundle includes 30 stalks of wheat, giving students a hands-on way to see, touch, and explore one of the world’s most important grains. Students can thresh the wheat, separate kernels, and discuss how grains are processed into flour and bread in cultures around the globe.
This activity helps students make connections between agriculture, history, and nutrition, while reinforcing plant science concepts and food systems literacy.
