Garden Tea

Suggested Grade Level

Kindergarten - 2nd Grade

to our Channel for new classes.

Learn how to make tea from our garden while examining the traditions behind drinking tea.

Topics Covered:

• Explore the garden and look for edible plants to make tea with - what plants make tasty tea? What plants are not safe to eat?

• Examine tea drinking traditions around the world.

• Observe properties of water, tea, and tea with milk.

Learning Goals:

• Some materials allow light to pass through them, others allow only some light through and others block all the light and create a dark shadow on any surface beyond them, where the light cannot reach.

• Sunlight warms Earth’s surface. (and in our case, our tea!)

• Make observations and describe natural phenomenon.
