All Ages
Students learn about seven different California native plants. Each plant has a drawing that can be colored and facts that range from its watering needs, flower color, leaf type and type of pollinators that visit the plant. While the book is aligned to K-3 NGSS standards, we think the information about each plant will be informative for all ages and a chance for students to teach their parents about water wise plants during this current extended drought.
