In the Classroom
In a perfect world, students would use this lesson as a starting point for planting and growing their imaginary garden. Although it might not be possible to plant a garden in every case, consider using portions of the lesson to let students grow a plant of their choice in the classroom. Enhance learning by using edublogs, reviewed here, or Adobe Creative Cloud Express for Education, reviewed here, to document the growing process including failures and successes. Include images, videos, and student writing to document their learning.
