The
Art of Predicting Seasonal Change
This
month we are practicing the art of predicting spring’s arrival
in gardens around the Northern Hemisphere. Students may start to
think about how geography affects the timing of seasonal change.
Gather resource maps that show landforms. Open discussions about
how elevation or bodies of water can affect temperature and climate.
Partner Gardens
As the map fills up with garden sites, you can begin to plan how you
might partner with other students across the globe. Remember that you
can contact any of the gardeners. Simply click on their brown sqare
and connect through their Field Notes report email link. There are many
extensions to this activity. Take a look at some of the things you might
consider >>
