Big Ideas

Daily and seasonal changes affect all living things.

Living things have features and behaviours that help them survive in their environment.

Living things have life cycles adapted to their environment.

Water is essential to all living things, and it cycles through the environment.

Living things are diverse, can be grouped, and interact in their ecosystems.

All living things sense and respond to their environment.

Multicellular organisms have organ systems that enable them to survive and interact within their environment.

Multicellular organisms rely on internal systems to survive, reproduce, and interact with their environment.

Evolution by natural selection provides an explanation for the diversity and survival of living things.

The biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere are interconnected, as matter cycles and energy flows through them.

Additional Notes

Situated at Vancouver Technical and David Thompson secondary schools, our schoolyard farms are a short walk from many elementary schools and community centres. All field trips include a farm work experience, as well as a chance to harvest and taste veggies, when seasonally available. We require 1 teacher/chaperone for every 8 grade K-3 students and for every 10 grade 4-12 students.
