My Project

My students greatly enjoy learning new concepts. We are in high school and we are wanting to have an indoor garden. I have two plants and my students love them! They take care of them by watering them and pulling the dead leaves off of them.

This gardening kit would be an excellent tool to use to teach my students the importance of caring for our environment and all the organisms in it.

They asked if we could get an indoor garden last year. So we are starting off with 5 small ones this year. If these work out then we may evpand them to hte rest of the science wing. We can have lunches in our classrooms to taste the herbs we will be growing! The students would use this gardening kit to grow veggies for our classroom.
