| This Teaching Toolkit contains lessons which supplement and support gardening
activities. These “garden lessons” should have a regular place in the classroom timetable, on top of gardening time. The “garden curriculum” aims to give learners some control over the “food cycle” process, through planning, organizing, promoting, evaluating and - not least - celebrating achievements. The lessons therefore
aim not only at knowledge and practical skills but also at awareness, attitudes and life skills. |
