Math investigations for use in a school garden connected to the Grades 1-6 Ontario Mathematics Curriculum (number sense and numeration, measurement, and data management). This garden math unit was developed to make mathematics more holistic (using all of the senses). There are eight investigations and each contains ideas for most grades from 1-6 within that skill or concept. This allows teachers to consider the range of knowledge and ability within a concept for students who may need support or enrichment. It can be used in conjunction with textbooks to add practice and skill development. There are many benefits to gardening with students, the exercise, the healthy food, the fresh air and sunshine, but it is difficult for teachers to meet curriculum goals while doing special projects like gardening. This unit is meant to accommodate teachers who would like to meet curriculum goals while gardening with their class.

Each investigation in this book asks a question and presents a plan of action. None has a single 'right answer, ' yet all can be answered in some way. There's no answer key--it's up to students to use their critical thinking skills and number sense to evaluate their work and the work of their classmates. It's up to you to help them recognize and apply the math ideas embedded in every investigation, such as patterns and relationships, computation, estimation, measurement, statistics, and proportional reasoning.- from the book.Grades 5-8.

Offering a fresh approach to bringing life to schools and schools to life, this book goes beyond touting the benefits of learning gardens to survey them as a whole-systems design solution with potential to address myriad interrelated social, ecological, and educational issues. The theoretical and conceptual framework presented creatively places soil at the center of the discourse on sustainability education and learning garden design and pedagogy. Seven elements and attributes of living soil and learning gardens are presented as a guide for sustainability education: cultivating a sense of place; fostering curiosity and wonder; discovering rhythm and scale; valuing biocultural diversity; embracing practical experience ; nurturing interconnectedness. The living soil of learning gardens forms the basis of a new metaphoric language serving to contest dominant mechanistic metaphors presently influencing educational discourse. Student voices and examples from urban schools provide practical understanding of how bringing life to schools can indeed bring schools to life.

"Kids love to move. But how do we harness all that kinetic energy effectively for math learning? In Math on the Move, Malke Rosenfeld shows how pairing math concepts and whole body movement creates opportunities for students to make sense of math in entirely new ways. Malke shares her experience creating dynamic learning environments by: exploring the use of the body as a thinking tool, highlighting mathematical ideas that are usefully explored with a moving body, providing a range of entry points for learning to facilitate a moving math classroom. ..."--Publisher description.
