In this lesson, students will use a square foot gardening planting chart (provided) to calculate the number of crops they can plant within a specific area.
Students will convert vegetable bed measurements from feet to metric units using decimals.
In this lesson, students will use an existing compost pile to make observations that will help them better understand the decomposition process.
Students will learn how descriptive words make stories clearer and more interesting to read.
The broadcast Radio Sales job includes marketing and sales as well as managing the accounts. College is helpful but not essential. Beginning salary is discussed. Positive aspects are the flexible hours and the opportunity to meet new people. The job includes lots of paper work. Internships are a helpful to getting started option.
Students will use their knowledge of summarizing data sets with multiple categories using a dot plot.
Students know that there are recognizable patterns on earth. To demonstrate the rotation of earth, students will track the shadows on a sundial throughout the day.

Students will observe and record the changes caused by weathering and erosion from moving water have on limestone.
As part of the engineering design process to create testable model heart valves, students learn about the forces at play in the human body to open and close aortic valves. They learn about blood flow forces, elasticity, stress, strain, valve structure and tissue properties, and Young's modulus, including laminar and oscillatory flow, stress vs. strain relationship and how to calculate Young's modulus. They complete some practice problems that use the equations learned in the lesson mathematical functions that relate to the functioning of the human heart. With this understanding, students are ready for the associated activity, during which they research and test materials and incorporate the most suitable to design, build and test their own prototype model heart valves.
In this lesson, students will conduct experiments simulating erosion by pouring water on various surfaces in the outdoor classroom.
Students will read the provided complex text about erosion and use the outdoor space to verify or deny the content of the text in the real-world setting.

Students estimate the numbers of objects in situations in which counting is not feasible or necessary.
Students will understand that everybody is a writer, that writing is a tool for communication, and that it is an ongoing process. Students will create a beginning writing piece that could be made into a class book.
Using a student-generated paragraph about observations in their outdoor classroom, students will be able to distinguish facts and opinions.

Once upon a time are four words most children are familiar with when reading a fairy tales. They are a great way to learn the literary elements of reading and writing. In this lesson, students will create their own fairy tale character using materials they will collect around the outdoor learning lab. This lesson supports all types of fairy tales and can be used with a variety of learners and readers.
Students will use their knowledge or availability and scarcity to determine income and earnings.
Students will learn about the ways garden organisms depend on each other in their environment for survival. Animals eat plants and/or other animals for food this will show students how energy is transferred from the sun to living things.
