Teaching Life Skills in a Garden Classroom
School garden educator Shannon Stewart thinks of herself as an emerging seedling amongst old growth forests.
Stewart, who teaches in San Diego, California, says that this is her second career—and as a “seedling” in the the field of school gardens.
She uses the garden to teach:
*
health and nutrition
*
science
*
critical thinking
*
teamwork
*
and even public speaking
