Kansas Corn STEM strives to introduce teachers to new teaching tools and strategies while connecting them to science and agriculture. A Breakout Box is a tool educators use to teach different concepts to students. The Breakout Box is similar to an escape room and brings that same engagement and excitement to the classroom. The Breakout Box makes players/students use critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and communication skills.
As the need to produce more food with less resources grows, it is important that future generations have a better understanding of agriculture and how corn farming and agriculture fit into our daily lives. That’s why the Kansas Corn STEM program provides lessons to teach science through the lens of corn. We are committed to providing free materials and training to support educators.
