Lesson 6: Spring

Continue your #readpaintcook journey with our sixth Adventures in Italy with the Build Your Masterpiece Class. Within Adventure 6 we will be learning about the Renaissance gardens in Florence and the Lemons that grow there. The Villa di Castello is one of the oldest gardens, and was created in the 16th Century. It also has a collection of many different kinds of Lemon Tress, that have been cherished and cultivated over hundreds of years.

This Adventure is Lemon-tastic because we have also included an additional Unit Study all about the Life Cycle of a Lemon for you to enjoy as well as Lemon Inspired Art Projects that encourage the use of the 7 Elements of Art, including Parts of a Lemon Tree, Parts of a Lemon, worksheets, poetry copy work, recipes, crafts and more!
