TurfMutt Lesson Plan: Know Your Climate Zone

It’s an important life lesson to learn which plants and grasses thrive in your area, and you can never start too early! That’s why the TurfMutt Foundation has developed a lesson plan for kids in grades K-2 that explores this topic.

The lesson, “Know Your Climate Zone,” includes a map of the U.S. that identifies the various climate zones for each region and state. It teaches kids the definitions for important terms like climate zone, native plants and adapted plants. It also educates them about the four major climate zones – polar, dry, humid tropical and moist mid-latitude.
