    This was one of the best additions to my plant and seed unit. Even other teachers walking by my classroom stopped in to see how cute their personalized greenhouses were doing. Then, they even stopped back by a week later to check the progress of the growth of the grass in the front yard of the student’s greenhouses. The kids loved “mowing” their grass with their little scissors. This was a hit!

    This was such a big hit! My kiddos loved being able to make their house their own by coloring every piece and it really helped to be able to visually see plant needs. They loved growing their own front yard!

    My students loved this activity! The greenhouses turned out super cute. We used a combination of straws and popsicle sticks to help the house stand up in the grass. In the future, I would plant grass first, let it grow, and then add the house and embellishments. Some of the moisture from the grass/soil is making the marker bleed in the house. But, overall, it was a great recourse – just would alter the order that I do parts.

    This is such a fun resource to use during the spring school session. I was able to use for multiple students at different age levels. These are a very fun activity to add to any science curriculum.
