Thank You.
Thanks to generous donors, like YOU, we can fund classroom innovations like the Fork Farms Hydroponic Tower at Aldrich Elementary School. Students used the Hydroponic Tower to learn in new and innovative ways.
Here are a few highlights from the semester:
Classes took turns germinating the seeds in their classrooms to watch the growing process. We then transferred the seedlings to the hydroponics tower to watch them grow.
We researched the benefits of hydroponic gardening versus traditional gardening.
We used charts to track the life cycle of the lettuce seeds we planted from planting to germination, to seeding, to harvest time.
Students gave reasons for which plant varieties we should try next year through persuasive writing.
“We have loved having the Fork Farms Hydroponics Tower in the library this semester. It has generated so many great questions and conversations while students are checking out books.”
