Lesson Plans

The Sandy Hook Interactive Herbarium understands the importance of education. Many young students have little knowledge about herbaria, and so the Sandy Hook Interactive Herbarium team has decided to include fun new ways of learning about herbaria so that young audiences may begin to gain interest in our work and in the significance of plant species.

Currently our lesson plan focus is on a series of children’s packets. These packets are a series of printable worksheets oriented towards young children that can be completed either in a classroom setting or alone.
