About the Program
Welcome to the launch of the Battle of the Plants! The mission of this program is to engage students in learning and applying academics through hands-on gardening. Our model uses both collaboration and competition with students across the world to build engagement and buy-in.
|
We build literacy by having students journal their experiences, read and research leveled content, learn robust vocabulary and decoding skills, and write to communicate with their teammates and competitors
|
Students learn how math skills are applied in a variety of contexts, receive repeated practice opportunities to reach mastery, and work to justify their answers.
|
Life science skills are a foundation of the program, interwoven with "real" life skills like gardening, cooking, preserving, and crafting.
