The Problem
My son's school used to have a garden, which was curated by some parents but has been abandoned for some time. Now, a new teacher is aspiring to revitalize the garden: plant new plants, fix the landscape, and engage students and parents alike with: -Hands-on learning: Gardens provide practical lessons in science, math, and environmental studies. -Health and wellness: Encourage healthy eating, physical activity, and reduced stress. -Social-emotional growth: Build responsibility, teamwork, and patience through shared tasks. -Academic engagement: Boost focus, behavior, and interest in learning. -Life and citizenship skills: Teach planning, problem-solving, and community involvement.
