Using picture cards, children sort care actions such as spilling water, reusing cups, taking turns, washing hands, and turning off extra water into 'helps our garden' and 'hurts our garden.' Pairs explain one choice with teacher-supported language, then the class builds a chart of good-for-the-environment and safe garden actions. This just-in-time lesson prepares students to choose criteria and limits for their future garden design.
