Description
This is a project with 9 activities where students are a part of a community garden! This is all ready to print and go.
For the activities that require it, there is a version with simpler numbers/concepts and a version with more complex ones. This means in New Zealand, is appropriate for students from Stage 5 to Stage 7 (approx. age 7 - 11).
Please note, this project uses dollars and the metric system. However, this is a Google Slide so easily editable!
