Plant Propagation

Help me give my students an experience in propagation. My next unit will introduce my students to the system of monoculture pros and cons. Here they will grow new plants from clippings.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

We are a school that caters to new arrivals. All my students are learning English and many have interrupted education. Our goal is to have a our students speaking, writing and reading in English by the time they graduate. My students love to dance and sing and have put on wonderful plays for the last few years in our school.

This year for the first time ever we are offering Horticulture.

My students are pretty excited about it and so am I! Having hands on projects and activities allows them to become motivated in learning. we are changing the our perimeter of our field into a garden. At the current moment it is just over grown with weeds. Since it is our first time offering this course we are starting from the bottom up. We want this garden to be their gift to future students, the community and the entire building. Currently our school houses 3 other high schools.

My Project

These materials will allow my students to conduct experiments to show the best methods to propagate plants. It will allow them to go from reading about propagation techniques to conducting propagation experiments.

The slides of monocot and dicot will allow them to see how form and function play a role in plant growth.

They can discover what the advantages are for a plant to be a monocot or dicot. We are pretty excited about using our compound light microscopes and this will definitely be a highlight.

Having different plants as a showcase for class will allow my students to compare and contrast adaptations in relationship to environment.
