Teacher Resources

Teachers play a crucial role in any child’s development. In fact, teachers serve as surrogate parents while the biological ones are away at work. With so much emphasis on preserving the environment, countless schools and institutions have implemented landscaping and agricultural courses as part of their curriculums. In fact, pre-school and kindergarten kids now learn about plant life and gardening on a weekly basis. Most schools also invite local landscaping companies and plant experts on Career Day. These professionals discuss the importance of plant care for homes and offices. They also interact with students on gardening care, while answering any questions they may have.

The Internet also features a range of valuable resources for teachers. This includes lesson plans, video presentations, interactive games, quizzes, and more. These materials are designed to help teachers educate students on plants, landscaping, gardening, and so much more.
