CAMPUS LIFE

Gardening

Exploring the world around them, children learn to observe nature and understand their role in it. Here at Alden Montessori we bring the
children into nature and bring nature to the children. Everyday is filled
with the joys of working with plants. Gardening is a wonderful
way for the children to learn first hand
the amazing beauty of the plant kingdom.
They plant seeds and watch them grow,
they nurture young plants to maturity,
they partake in the benefits the plant has
to offer, and learn to take care of all
the plant’s basic needs from day to day.
Taking care of a living thing teaches
them responsibility and the enjoyment they receive from it.
