Extension Activities and Field Trips
Looking to spend just one engaging, structured day in the Cultural Gardens with your students, or one day doing Cultural Gardens-inspired activities? Any of these lessons can be used independently rather than as a part of a larger curricular arc.
In addition to the resources below, some additional notes about scheduling a field trip to the gardens:
You are welcome to visit the gardens on your own using these materials, but if you would like a guided tour please reach out to the Cleveland Cultural Gardens Federation.
If you/your students have a special interest in a specific Cultural Garden, each Garden has its own webpage and representatives. Feel free to reach out directly to the Garden representatives if you would like one of them to be a guest speaker.
Some gardens that are not yet developed have design plans that you can use with your students as well, especially if you are interested in a cultural group that does not yet have a garden constructed.
