Growing Everywhere
In this hands-on lesson, students illustrate and find the area and perimeter of the rockwool pattern. They also create an expression to represent the number of seeds needed to plant their rockwool pattern.
Once this is complete, students plant a rockwool garden and observe growth over 7 weeks. They will illustrate the process of photosynthesis and explain how a tower garden operates.

By exploring seeds and the effects of different planting patterns/depths on seed germination, students will conduct exploration of varying seed depths in soil and keep track of growth and traits over
This is the planning and set-up stage for an experiment to see which type of gardening is the most sustainable and produces the best results. You will need to either choose or have students help
In this hands-on lesson, students will work in groups of 3 and experiment with light on plants to explain photosynthesis. They will conduct this experiment over the course of 3 to 4 weeks. With data
