My First Garden on CD-ROM

My First Garden is a great way for students to learn how to grow their own food! It was designed for grades 3-5, but is easily adaptable to other grades. It connects gardening to science, social studies, and mathematics. Through various activities, students will learn to collect and organize data, measure using non-standard units, and plan and problem-solve using estimation. They maintain journals, nurture their plants, and plot growth in the gardens. But the most fun is gardening in unbelieveable places like an old show or a watering can.

A CD-ROM version of My First Garden is available with eight other of our most popular school curricula for $16.99 which includes postage and handling.
