Free Gardening Lessons and Activities Online
Because some of the activities, projects and articles in this just released
issue deal with gardening and cooking, I thought I should post it to this listserv. Participants from our AMC Montessori Resource Center http://www.amonco.org/directory.html have once again generously submitted some marvelous *free* summertime lesson planning ideas and activities. This summer your students can make musical instruments, *participate in fun geography games*, create some beautiful gift boxes, and learn how to create and then enjoy a delicious, nutritious watermelon blueberry banana split. History, geography and literature need not be presented in a vacuum. The articles Family Heritage and Timelines, Howls with Owls, Taking your class on a literature journey?, Making Vacations Count, and Family Heritage and Timelines provide school and home educators with some brand new interdisciplinary ideas besides offering some excellent extension exercises students are sure to appreciate.
