This summer, UConn 4-H has developed 5 unique activity kits focused on the theme “Earth Agents” in support of the 2024 iRead theme, “Read, Renew, Repeat.” Youth will explore physical and biological sciences while developing problem solving skills and learning about conservation efforts. Each activity has a tutorial video featuring Mr. Marc, which you can access on the UConn Extension YouTube channel or on the UConn 4-H website.
