Rock Your Classroom with Plant Fun!

Come cut, paste, dance and smash your way to plant literacy! Join us as we discover fun ways to integrate plants into all subject areas! From classification to songs, and puppets to flower anatomy, use a plant theme to teach anything! We keep it budget-friendly with low-cost and easily acquired materials like paper plates and 15-bean soup mix. Don't let 'green thumbs' have all of the fun, you need no background knowledge to rock plant science!
