Before You Use Garden Missions
Garden Missions let students grow virtual plants by completing Missions.
Fully grown plants are added to a shared Classroom Garden.
The Classroom Garden generates game rewards over time based on the number and type of plants contributed.
Assign a Mission before students can begin working toward a plant.
What Garden Missions Include
Virtual plants
Students grow virtual plants by completing the assigned Mission. Once a plant is fully grown, it is added to the shared Classroom Garden.
Classroom Garden rewards
The Classroom Garden generates game rewards over time. Rewards are based on the number and type of plants contributed by students.
Classroom Celebrations
When a Garden Mission wraps up, the plants from the completed Mission are transferred to the Classroom Garden through a Classroom Celebration.
How Garden Missions Work
Assign a Mission to your students.
Students complete the Mission to grow their virtual plants.
When a plant is fully grown, it is added to the shared Classroom Garden.
The Classroom Garden generates game rewards over time based on the plants contributed.
What Happens When a Garden Mission Passes Its Due Date
When a Garden Mission reaches its due date, or when all assigned students complete it, the Mission is removed from students’ Main page.
Students can no longer continue working on the Mission, and it is no longer visible in the student interface. This helps teachers receive consistent, timely progress data before moving on to new topics and gives them an opportunity to support students who are struggling.
If the teacher extends the due date
The Mission reappears only for students who have not finished it. These students can still complete the Mission and have their plant added to the Classroom Garden, but no new celebration is triggered.
If a student does not complete the Mission
Students who do not complete the Garden Mission do not receive rewards, and their plants are not added to the Classroom Garden. The Mission disappears and cannot be opened again.
