This list of resources is a multi-resource listing of materials that have been evaluated by Saskatchewan educators and are considered appropriate for support of the Agriculture Studies 30 Curriculum Guidelines . The purpose of this listing is to provide teachers with suggested starting points toward building a wide range of suitable instructional materials. The items listed are intended to promote the philosophy of resource-based learning, in which the students gain knowledge and understandings through a variety of resources and instructional approaches. This multi-resource approach provides students with opportunities to interact with a wide range of current materials to suit varied learning styles. It is important that human resources be accessed as well.
Every community has capable people who can enrich educational experiences.
This list provides suggestions for resources. However, it remains the responsibility of classroom teachers, in consultation with teacher-librarians, to preview and select materials. Selection should be based on the objectives and philosophy of the curriculum, students interests and abilities, students prior knowledge and experience, and the interests or needs of the community. Prices quoted are subject to change and do not include taxes, but will serve as a guide to approximate costs. LRDC prices include shipping and handling fees.
