First graders brainstorm what they would plant in their own garden (flowers, fruits, vegetables, etc.) and then listen to the Kevin Henkes story, 'My Garden'. After the story, students use their imagination to share what would grow (or be invisible) in their own special garden. After the class brainstorm, students write and illustrate their own version of 'My Garden.' Look for the corresponding lesson plan and Promethean flipchart.
