Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 5
In this writing meets outdoor garden science class, students will virtually observe red wiggler worms and learn about their adaptations in the garden with videos and live discussion.  I have real worms with me to help illustrate how they move and thrive in rotting vegetation as we talk about their job in composting.  Students will be given new vocabulary words that are associated with science curriculum that will be incorporated into their creative worm writing lesson.  After observing the worms during the first session the students will be given a worksheet to think about characteristics of their own imaginary red wiggler.  During the second class we will work together to write a fun and factual worm biography.

Learning Goals

Students will improve their understanding of earth and worm science while developing and organizing their language arts skills.

Enthusiastic mom of 2 kids, Lisa Ely first learned to garden from her dad in their backyard when she was 6.  Ever since there has not been a pile of dirt that she didn’t want to get her hands in.

Lisa is creator of Learn, Giggle & Grow Garden Curriculum and the co-author of three books under the Kinder Gardens umbrella. She is currently working on her next book series and a multi-media, adventure gardening experience for families to learn more and be inspired every day.

Prior to launching her children’s and family gardening enterprise, Lisa traveled the world over and over as an award-winning non-fiction TV producer and director.  Some of her credits, like CBSs The Amazing Race, Discovery’s Garden Police and a number of shows on HGTV (including the Rose Parade) have helped her learn more about her garden passion.
 
Lisa’s always been described as a big kid and it wasn’t until she had kids that people stopped looking at her a bit funny when she would start a mud ball fight or run through the sprinklers.  She admits that she’s good at playing because she’s had years of practice! She lives by her new family motto of “We’re washable!”

Lisa loves being in front of group sharing her love of everything fun in the garden.  Some of her favorite classes are focused on worm science, eating the rainbow, tomato talk, soil on the move and root, stems, oh my!
 
When she’s not gardening she’s often with her husband watching their kids play baseball, paddling a dragon boat or playing her own version of “Chopped” to get a nightly dinner on the table!
