Green Roof House (1 per student)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Green roofs help cool cities, reduce food miles, and supply a host of other benefits to a community. Students will learn how different types of roofs affect the environment. They will also discover how cities benefit from green roofs by designing their own urban home using a cardboard model while building an edible “green roof” that grows real dun pea shoots that are great in quesadillas!
