The Edible Schoolyard Lesson Plans | Green Animals Topiary Garden

Students at table Thanks to a generous grant from the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities, the Green Animals ESY team has been able to develop lesson plans focused on the RI Social Studies GSEs as the basis of our lessons. Check out the Rhode Island Grade Span Expectations here.

Below are lesson plans for teachers to use while at Green Animals, or in their own classrooms. All of the lessons posted were developed during our planning year supported by the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities by teachers and our Green Animals Edible Schoolyard team.

We strive to keep our lessons as up to date as possible. If you have a suggestion or any feedback about our current plans, please email Bridget Gallagher at bgallagher@newportmansions.org.

Grades K – 5

Grades 6 – 8

Grades 9 – 12
