The Japanese Garden

Reflection

Personal comments on the learning experience:

This lesson is an excellent approach to a hands-on learning experience. It provides cooperative learning which enables all students to participate. Through this process, many different learning styles can be accommodated. This lesson can be integrated across the curriculum which touches across many different learning standards. Students can expand the connection to other

learning standards by recording, measuring, estimating and classifying the many different plants. This learning experience can be adapted to many different classrooms and provides students with a sense of ownership.
