The Academy had a chance to enjoy our first in-school harvest of sprouts from our Pickle Farm prototype design. The Grade 10 Learning Strategies class picked freshly sprouted pea shoots and sunflower seed sprouts in order to create a delicious appetizer consisting of fresh bakery bread, sprouts (of course!), fresh tomatoes and Boursin cheese. The class used this activity as part of their lesson on identifying and describing personal lifestyle strategies that enhance health and wellness and improve one’s readiness to learn – in this case – making nutritious food choices!
