| Classroom Bundle Teach kids early about the origins of healthy food and why it’s so good for them and the Earth. Made for Preschoolers to 3rd graders, science is at the heart of each My First Organics Classroom Bundle. Environmental and nutritional connections are introduced, too.
Start with “How a Garden Saves the Earth”, a full color, 24-page children’s book about kids growing their own fruits and vegetables. It also simplistically explains the importance of locally grown, sustainable food and how it is connected to their health and that of the planet.
Each child chooses from 5 different organic seed varieties and plants it in their own biodegradable pot. The class can monitor the growth of their herbs and veggies inside of mini-greenhouses that sit on the windowsill. When ready, they can put the plants - pot and all - in a class or home garden and wait for the harvest! Teachers can reuse the greenhouse year after year.
The Teacher Resource Pack includes blackline masters and instructions for PreK-3 teachers. The complete lesson embodies standards-based learning in science, mathematics and language arts through relevant, hands-on activities.
Recycle, reuse, biodegrade – everything in the kit is Earth-safe! Each My First Organics Classroom Kit Includes:
