Our project is "kid-inspired" because our students decided we need an indoor garden to complete our unit on gardening, seeds, and plants. We have tried growing our very own bean, lettuce, and garlic plants, but unfortunately due to the unpredictable New York weather, it has been too cold for the seeds to germinate. With this AeroGarden, we would be able to successfully grow our own plants indoors, even if the weather is cold! Having our own garden will also help our students learn about how important it is to fuel your body with healthy foods. Our students will be beyond thrilled to grow their own garden, right in our classroom! Since it is not always guaranteed that seeds will grow during the cold New York seasons, it would be extremely helpful to have this AeroGarden to increase our chances of having a classroom garden. We can't wait to see their excitement as they watch our garden change from just a pod of soil, to a large, green, flourishing, vegetable plant. Then finally, they will be able to have a nutritious snack they have grown throughout the year!
