How Do We Create and Grow a Sustainable Garden within the School?

The “Sustainable School Garden” lesson plan is a unique opportunity for students to learn about the principles of sustainable gardening and to apply their knowledge in a hands-on project. This teacher resource is designed for students to work in teams and take on the challenge of designing and creating a garden that will thrive in a school environment, even during weekends and holidays when it may not receive regular care.

By taking on this project, students will have the chance to put their problem-solving skills to the test and to think critically about how to create a self-sufficient garden that can thrive without constant attention. The project requires students to consider factors such as sunlight, water, soil quality, and the types of plants that will grow best in the school’s environment.

This lesson plan provides a great opportunity for students to learn about sustainability and the importance of taking care of the environment. They will also gain hands-on experience in gardening and horticulture, as well as valuable teamwork and collaboration skills.

The Sustainable School Garden project is a fantastic way to make learning about sustainability and environmental responsibility fun and engaging. By participating in this lesson plan, students will gain a deeper understanding of the importance of sustainability and the role they can play in creating a more sustainable world.
