50 High-Impact, Low-Care Garden Plants by Tracy Disabato-Aust

NON-FICTION

This is an informative book on different plants that are commonly used in gardens. There are wide variety of plants to choose from, and each one is described as to the habitat and resources best suited for them.  Students will learn what makes a plant high-maintenance and why they need sunlight to grow.

I will use this book to create a hands-on experience by taking my class out into the school yard and learning what we can and cannot plant with our given landscapes and sunlight.  Students will be able to find suggestions from the book, and explain many unique facts about plants. This is a science objective for the 3rd grade so it integrates these those subjects together, producing a higher-level of thinking assignment.
