Our students learn best and retain knowledge when they get hands-on experience. Planting seeds and watching them grow helps children learn about the growth process, the environment and the foods they eat. Gardening also engages children to use all their senses.
We want our youngest scholars to be deeply engaged in the world of science, and gardening is a wonderful introduction to it.
As students plant their seeds, their natural curiosities will kick in and they will begin to hypothesize what will happen next. They will be engaging in this process alongside the CKLA curriculum, which emphasizes stages of plant growth and what plants need to survive.
Growing herbs and sunflowers will also teach our students about responsibility. A classroom helper will be assigned the role of 鈥済ardener鈥 and instructed to care for the seeds on their assigned day. We need soil, pots, seeds, and herb kits to make this experience possible for our students.
