In this interactive class, learners will explore the world of gardening from familiar foods in their very own kitchens. We will cover the common food items that can be regrown, food that is in itself a seed, and foods that have seeds that can be planted. We will discuss how long these plants take to grow into food, and which foods can be regrown into seeds. Our class will have an short period for introduction and gathering learner ideas, then we will go over the content in an interactive slide show. We will have time after the slide show to answer questions and generate ideas of what foods each learner might plant in their specific growing conditions. No gardening experience required. If your learner is 12-15 years old, please see the advanced version of this lesson. It is paced for our older learners.
Learning Goals
Students will gain a beginner level understanding of the life cycle of common food items.

Hello! My name is Beth. I teach classes in writing, sewing, gardening, and life skills. I unschool my own two children, we are from New Orleans, LA, and now live on a small farm in south Mississippi.
I believe that where there is interest, learning will follow. I create engaging and interesting classes that inspire interest and foster learning and true comprehension. I offer a supportive and positive learning environment where it is safe to make mistakes. Mistakes are an amazing opportunity for learning. I enjoy helping students find the spark that lights the fire of motivation. In my classroom, students grow in confidence and bravery.
