📐 Zone Model and Sign Draft

Teams build a first prototype of their themed garden area using cardboard, clay, craft sticks, string, grid paper, plant cards, and sign templates. The prototype must show plant placement, paths, one learning-station feature, and one sign draft that explains plant needs or stewardship. Students also add one idea for monitoring or reducing human impact, such as mulch, runoff control, watering plans, or footpath boundaries.
