Ms. Nasos,
1) Are you familiar with the Mallorn school garden's listserve ? If not,
going into it's archives can be extremely helpful - many middle school
gardening instructors communicate on this free service:
<A HREF="http://www.hort.net/lists/school_garden/">School Garden</A>
2) Why don't you try the commercial National Gardening Association's
kidsgardening.com site?
At kidsgardening.com go to:
<A HREF="http://www.kidsgardening.com/teachers.asp#new">Kidsgardening
Teacher's Reference</A>
which has a large number of projects and products dealing with multicultural
gardens, books, posters, seeds and excellent links to middle schools ( 8th
graders mostly), plant histories & cultural links, growing cultural
understanding. I saw a great Asian Vegetable poster and interesting
materials on Native American agricultural practices.
Ther is even an online Teacher's course for the teaching of plant science for
students grades 1-8:
