Hi Shan,

Thanks for posting your question regarding curriculum materials for
elementary age kids. Here are a few suggested titles to add to your list:

GrowLab: Activities for Growing Minds
& GrowLab: A Complete Guide to Gardening in the Classroom (both published
by the National Gardening Association)

Project Seasons (published by Shelburne Farms)

These books and others are available through the Gardening with Kids
Catalog, produced by NGA, or on the NGA Web site, www.kidsgardening.com

For grant information, check out NGA's Youth Garden Grants Program. The
deadline for the 2001 grant cycle is November 1, 2000. Applications can be
downloaded at www.kidsgardening.com or you can request an application by
calling National Gardening Association at 800-538-7476.

Sincerely,

Jim Flint
Youth Garden Grants Director
National Gardening Association
