    How does this sound to you?

Too good to be true?  No!  It's just what's available to you through the Carroll County 4-H Program and Ohio State University Extension's 4-H School Enrichment Programs.

Our kits are free for you to sign out and use in your classroom.  They come with a complete book full of ready to teach lesson plans which meet the targeted performance and instructional objectives from "Ohio's Model Competency-Based Programs for Science" for 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grades; camera ready copies of worksheets and handouts; and all of the materials to do the experiments in the books.

We will be glad to come to your classroom and teach one, some, or all of the lessons, or show you how to use them yourself!  4-H School Science Curriculums are designed to enhance your classroom learning and are easy to use so that it does not add more work to your already hectic life!  They fit right in with the science curriculums being used in the Carrollton Exempted Schools!

4-H School Enrichment Programs have been an important part of the Carroll County 4-H Program for the last 4 years.  We hope that as we start our 5th year, our programs will continue to grow and reach even more students.  Following are the statistics for the 1999-2000 school year:
