As part of the Military 4-H Partnership base staff have access to 4-H curriculum through your in-house curriculum, State 4-H Curriculum, and staff can choose to order additional resources through the National 4-H website.
Let a staff member know if you need additional resources. We will be happy to assist in finding resources and/or purchasing curriculum when we are able. Reach out to Laura Goss at laurwalt@uga.edu for assistance.
Below are some resources to consider.
Introduction to 4-H Lesson Plan Highlight:
Looking ahead to the Fall a typical lesson we prepare for is an Introduction to 4-H Lesson. Our goal is to teach teens about the club’s history while showing them how 4-H can open up many doors for teens today. Georgia 4-H state staff wrote a fun introduction to 4-H lesson years ago that is still being used today that highlights 4-H through sports. Laura Goss has also worked on a new introduction to 4-H lesson that is perfect for youth in grades 4th-6th that is interactive and ideal for after school clubs.
Science Lessons:
Kasey Bozeman, State 4-H Specialist, has created several science lessons that are fun and educational. One lesson teaches about DNA through strawberries! A lesson that includes food is almost always a winner in my book!
Outdoor Cooking Lesson:
Bases are busy in the summertime hosting teens for various camps onsite and offsite. Consider hosting a 4-H Camp that includes food and healthy living. Several 4-H programs such as Oregon have a 4-H Outdoor Cooking Lessons that include cooking over a fire, cooking with charcoal, kebab cooking, and even tin can cooking! Lesson plans range from providing recipes to diving into the science behind the different styles of cooking.
