In the socioeconomic context of her time, Ellen White called agriculture the ABC of the curriculum to emphasize its importance in the education of a church, in addition to activities such as cooking, baking, canning, and colportering, among others. All of these are co-curricular activities whichcontributto the harmonious development of the human faculties whichare not necessarily taken into account in modern thought. Based inan exploratory researchstudywe intend to compare the proposals of the co-curricular activities in Ellen White with that of contemporary authors. The results indicate that the co-curricular activities in Ellen White transcend contemporary proposals because they prepare the students physically, socially, spiritually and intellectually, while the contemporary proposal considers that the co-curricular activities are afundamental support for the students and serve to expand their levels of knowledge, research and curriculum.
