Grade 3 Edible Social Studies: Week 3

The third graders will spend the semester learning about how different populations of people have made their mark on our local soil of San Francisco. With the fine late summer weather and our outdoor classroom in transition due to construction, we thought we’d spend the next few weeks with Rooms 212 and 213 giving them the space and tools to make their mark on their schoolyard. Students got inspiration from colorful images of the four components of soil and then in small groups sanded tree stumps and painted a base color they can then build on in our next class.

The garden snack this week was organic Nelson carrots from Fifth Crow Farm in Pescadero, which kids and chickens enjoyed alike!
