The lesson “Caring for Plants” teaches children to define the different elements that help and hurt plants. Children have the opportunity to participate in a nature walk, determining whether or not things like birds, insects, sun, and temperature assist or hamper the growth of local plants. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 25th lesson in the 2nd Year “Raising Food” unit.
