Gardens in Education
Reconnecting children with nature has become a popular topic with many educators today. Studying the interaction between plants and animals in a garden community offers educators many ways to tie science, math, English, art and environmental studies together in a fun and safe learning environment. Child experts around the country are urging those involved with children, to increase the amount play time in natural settings that children are exposed to. Activities can be simple, require a minimal number of materials and can include lessons in nutrition, composting, habitat studies and environmental stewardship.
Filtrexx®, in association with The National Gardening Association, The US Composting Council and Playworld Systems® has developed a booklet of 8 lesson plans that help to meet those goals. Contact us to learn more about obtaining this valuable classroom tool.
