Late Fall Garden Activities

Many teachers have integrated the Garden into their classroom during late October and early November.  Kindergarten art students (with Mrs. Taylor) learned about the artist Andy Goldsworthy. They created natural art collages with plants and flowers they picked in the garden. The second grade dahlia bed was "put to bed" by Mrs. Clay, her students and parent volunteers. Fourth graders from Mrs. Bianchi's class partnered with the preschool to harvest their garden, cook parsnip apple muffins and create beautiful art. The pictures below capture some of these creative learning experiences.
