Summary:

This week’s lesson “Take a Walk and Explore Your World,” is a fun activity that encourages fresh air and keen observation. Use the Schoolyard Gardens Scavenger Hunt to explore the nature in your own backyard while getting some healthy exercise!  Please note that we encourage you and your students to do this scavenger hunt safely, while keeping social distancing recommendations in mind.

Additional Resources:

  • Listen to this video to learn how to plant a seed. Make up your own movements to each action of planting seeds and reenact the song with your movements.
