Lesson Plan

You can now download the Project Food, Land & People "Let's Celebrate" Lesson Plan (Login Required).

The lesson plan allows students to explore in their own lives and in the lives of others the, role of celebrations and important foods involved, with a focus on corn.

After the lesson plan is completed, students will be able to: tell why people have celebrations; gather and analyze information about favorite celebrations; make and interpret a picture graph or bar graph displaying information gathered; describe three or four things people do to celebrate; identify at least two harvest celebrations and explain why they are celebrated; tell how corn is an important food in at least two celebrations; and will recognize how beliefs and values affect how cultures celebrate differently.
