General Objective
- Examine how plants have shaped everyone's life and, by extension, plants have impacted the development of cultures.
Strategy (alternatives)
- Students create a list of plants that they recall from their yards.
- Students list the plants that are part of their food memories; comfort foods are likely to be included in this list.
- Students describe the meanings that can be attached to different kinds of flowers (e.g., as gifts, used in ceremonies)
- Students are asked to draw a banana; drawings are compared.
