Workshop Description
Managing a large group of kids in an outdoor classroom can feel like trying to hold 30 ping pong balls underwater at once. How can we do it?! Participants in this workshop will explore tried-and-true tips for establishing and maintaining a positive, engaging culture of learning and fun in a garden setting. Together we will experience and discuss setting the tone for effective learning; garden class routines; station rotations; and specific techniques to maximize student engagement and participation. We will also discuss year-round garden activity planning that supports academic and garden care goals; ideas for assessing your program; and share strategies to increase funding for your program. Graduate education unit available.
