The program will offer connections and lessons in science, language arts, social studies, math, and art in the Lower School and language arts and science and art in the Middle and Upper Schools. The environmental art presentation will focus on using natural materials found on campus, such as wood, stone, clay, hand-made paper, and how to display art sensitively in the landscape. A panel of PDS teachers who use the garden will share their experiences. The program will end with a sharing of best garden lesson plan ideas and planning an outdoor classroom.
