WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING IN THE GARDEN?

We've been testing it out in small groups during HIT tutoring and we can
confirm, the students love it!

Here's the lessons we have been leading on Saturdays with cross-curricular

WHAT'S IN THE GARDEN?

Here's a quick look: 






WHAT CAN YOU DO IN THE GARDEN?



Here's a few ideas:

 * Science - Plant something and watch it grow.
 * Writing - Try a creative writing prompt and go to the garden for inspiration.
 * Science - Perform a science experiment about weather conditions, plant life,
   insects in soil, composting, etc.
 * Reading - Read non-fiction articles about gardening
 * ELA - Go sit in the garden for free reading time
 * Math - use the back of a seed packet to plot out garden planting for optimal
   growth
 * Algebra - calculate rate of growth based on observation of different kinds of
   plants
 * EBs - immerse in vocabulary engaging senses, spark conversations about what
   they see in the garden.
 * Music - Play or sing in the garden and listen to the difference in acoustics,
   experiment to see if it has any effect on the plants
 * Art - Take your sketch pad and practice observational drawing with living
   things
 * Math - See multiplication in action as you watch seeds multiply their yield
 * Social Studies - Create an indigenous garden plot 
 * Social Studies - discuss what types of vegetation grow in various climates
   across Texas or the US. How did this affect the movement and migration of
   people groups?
 * TELPAS practice - have students observe the garden and talk about what they
   see
 * Technology - take photos and videos in the garden and practice photo and
   video editing
