CitySprouts Garden Science Curriculum 

20 days ago

The words
Our curriculum is designed to fulfill the mission of CitySprouts, to cultivate curiosity and wonder in students through hands-on science learning in their own schoolyard gardens!

Lessons are specific to urban elementary school gardening in the northeast, but are designed to be adaptable. Lessons include printable cards and handouts, and best of all, it's free! Lessons are being updated yearly with input from our crew of dedicated garden educators.
 
Our garden science lessons:
  • start with children exploring natural phenomena hands-on 
  • pose questions that prompt children’s deeper thinking about core ideas in science
  • encourage children to talk about their thinking
  • allow children to explore at their own pace, and
  • provide a context to practice social emotional competencies such as self-awareness, self-management, relationship skills, and responsible decision making


*These lessons are aligned to Massachusetts Science and Technology Standards.
