About the Class
Healing Herbology is a one term class in which we will be increasing your Healer’s skills by studying the properties and benefits of different kind of plants, herbs, flowers, fruits, vegetables, and more!
If you are an aspiring Healer, or if you already have some knowledge about the subject, you are more than welcome to join! I promise we will have lots of fun!
There is only one warning though. Even though we are playing to become Healers, and we will have fun on the way, please, please, please, do not try anything without the approval and consent of a doctor or health professional. Your health is most important! Promise me that and we will all have a terrific term!

Lessons:
Healing Herbology consists of four lessons and a final exam. In each lesson we will cover a different group of plants and you will learn about their benefits and how you can use them as a Healer.
Assignments:
There will be four assignments and four extra credits, each of them worth 30 points. There will also be a final exam and a class project. They are worth 30 points each.
The Assignments will vary. You can have short answer questions, multiple choices, matching, true or false, etc. You will also find a “hands-on” section, in which you will have to study carefully the plants in order to prepare a remedy.
In the Extra Credits you will have the opportunity to choose between doing a writing project, an art project, or solving the “Narcissus Pot cases” (please take a look to the assignments if you want to know how these cases are).
Besides your regular and normal points, you will also be earning “Greenhouse Points”. These points will be handy when you do the project, if you choose to do it.
You can work at your own pace! You decide if you turn in your assignments in a monthly basis or by the end of the term. Whichever you choose, just keep in mind that the final due date to submit all of your work is JUNE 15th, 2020

Assistance:
To be inclusive at HOL is very important for our community, so if you rely on assistive technology or have any other needs that should be taken into account, please contact me as soon as possible, so I can offer you another options for certain parts of the assignments.
The Project:
For your class project you will have the chance to put into practice all what you have learned in the course. By the month of December/May, after you have learned all what you needed to learn, I will open a store in which I will be selling different kind of plants, and you will be buying from me using your Greenhouse Points you have earned through your assignments and extra credits!
By that month, I will also be posting five different remedies. Your job is to choose three of them and prepare them. You will have to think about the plants you are going to use and then buy them. Important! In order to prepare a high quality remedy, you must invest at least 30 Greenhouse points, if not your grade will decrease.
Just send your order or “shopping list”, and the explanation of your three remedies, and you will be done with the project! After that, another surprise may come! ;)
