INTRODUCTORY TEXT TO THE LESSON
In this lesson the students introduce us to the sensory garden in the school.
They talk about propagation of plants and how they learned about growing different types of plants as part of the project.
They also discuss the beneficial effects of learning outdoors as opposed to in class only.
One of the most interesting components of the video, and the one which may influence their peers, is their attitude to the positive effects in terms of environmental awareness, but also growing plants to contribute to healthy diet.
