Everett
Children’s Adventure Garden
Learning
plant science just got a lot more fun for students and their teachers
with the introduction of the kindergarten and first grade elementary
classroom curriculum, Adventure Garden SEEDS (Science Exploration
and Education Discovery Series). SEEDS gives teachers a new resource
that is packed with easy-to-use hands-on, inquiry-based classroom
lessons that transform fieldtrips to the Garden into an extended
and powerful learning experience. The lesson plans link thematically
with two field trips into the Adventure Garden, where students
apply what they learn in the classroom to a real life situation
using the 12-acre, indoor/outdoor interactive learning landscape.
The one-day professional development component takes place in
the Everett Children’s Adventure Garden and teachers receive step-by-step
guidance on how to implement the lesson plans and a quick refresher
on plant science.
