“How to Grow Dahlias: A Full-Season Garden Guide”
Once your learners know “Things to Know Before You Grow,” it’s time to dig into the garden and get their hands dirty with one of the most beloved and magical plants of all—dahlias! In this joyful, in-depth module, youth follow the full life cycle of a dahlia, from inspecting tubers in spring to harvesting show-stopping blooms, and finally saving those tubers for next season’s magic. Along the way, they’ll learn how to identify healthy tubers, prep and plant with confidence, care for their plants organically, and participate in the fall tradition of cutting back, dividing, and overwintering their garden’s gold.
The “How to Grow Dahlias” collection includes five hands-on lessons and a library of interactive worksheets, journal pages, and planting-day checklists—plus several engaging “how-to” videos from Farmer Steph herself. Whether you’re growing dahlias in a schoolyard bed or in containers on a sunny windowsill, this module turns your classroom into a bloom-filled lab where kids learn to nurture life, track seasonal change, and celebrate every stage of the growing cycle.
By the end of this series, students won’t just grow flowers—they’ll grow confidence, observation skills, and a lifelong appreciation for the natural beauty they helped bring to life.

Is Pop Culture Inclusive?
By PBS
6 - 12
Let’s talk pop culture. There’s been a ton of buzz about the importance of representation of minorities in all the latest movies, TV shows, music, sports, video games, and books. Whether it’s racial, gender, socioeconomic, disability, or sexual orientation, many people believe that pop culture hasn’t fully succeeded at being inclusive and representative.
Most recently, the casting of Black actress Halle Bailey as Ariel in the new Little Mermaid remake had some critics fuming. They claimed that Bailey couldn’t possibly play the red-haired, porcelain-skinned mermaid, while also launching #NotMyAriel and #NotMyMermaid campaigns on social media. Disney-owned TV channel Freeform clapped back, calling the naysayers “poor, unfortunate souls.” On the flip side, from the SRL archives, an example (link in preparation steps) about MTV’s short-lived reality TV show, Buckwild, where students from West Virginia talk about how rural stereotypes in the show can be hurtful.
Productions like Crazy Rich Asians, To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, Blackish, The Hate U Give, Queer Eye, and Coco, however, show that diversity can be successful.
