PROJECT DESCRIPTION
For this project, kids take a walk outside to observe and take leaf samples from the trees that line their neighborhood streets. Next, students take their samples inside to press, preserve, and observe the unique shapes and colors. Finally, students assemble a tree identification booklet that displays leaves and research notes from their scientific explorations.
WHAT'S INSIDE:
This download comes with a detailed lesson plan and a supply list to gather your materials. You will need to purchase the Tree ID booklets separately on our website to complete this project. We recommend buying materials at least 5-7 days before your class and to plan about 3-4 hours of prep depending on the size of your class.
This activity supports the following Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Common Core standards.
