The Garden Project<br />

‣ Begin with a basic discussion<br />

‣ Students show their thinking through pictures<br />

‣ Review old ideas and add to them<br />

‣ Bring in outside information to continue to build on the old ideas<br />

‣ Provide another opportunity for students to gain new knowledge<br />

‣ Children begin to develop an interest in a garden, so they take a field<br />

trip to a green house<br />

‣ Involve parents by asking them to donate plants and/or labor<br />

‣ Students prepare by creating maps<br />

‣ Plant their garden<br />

“Separation between thought and action prepares children to develop abstract<br />

thinking. Thinking and acting are no longer simultaneous; behaviors are no<br />

longer driven by objects, but rather by children’s s thinking.” Ling-Ling Tsao
