The Secret life of Plants

In collaboration with Qatar National Museum, Grade 6 students at Swiss International School Qatar have produced a magazine to preserve oral medical traditions and cultural practices. They also create ethical cosmetics and explore how football stadiums could feed hungry people. We are only young scientists so we do welcome feedback. This is a magazine written by children for children so there will be mistakes. Errata: Zaid's name is misspelled. The author is named Zade.

Can you calm kids with ADHD by<br />

using a naturalistic technique?<br />

In my personal experience, gardening<br />

(physically) helps me a lot with<br />

concentrating and calming<br />

down when I am frustrated or<br />

hyperactive. Children who are<br />

diagnosed with ADHD have lighter<br />

symptoms if they play in a green<br />

setting than if they play in built-up<br />

indoors or outdoor settings.<br />

Overall, I think this topic was very fun and interesting<br />

to learn about. <strong>Plants</strong> can have a healing effect on<br />

children and especially on children with ADHD. This is<br />

why at SISQ the gardening team's goal is to have a<br />

very big garden where students and teachers can go<br />

and cool <strong>of</strong>f and reflect about their actions anytime.<br />

Every morning I come to school, my classmates and I<br />

go to the garden to check on the plants and make sure<br />

they are all healthy. Taking care <strong>of</strong> the garden gives<br />

students an opportunity to learn how to be<br />

responsible, how to pay attention and socialize.
