Nature connection in Lower el this year is all about land and the forest floor. As you know, we've been learning about fungi for the past few weeks. We are also now learning about the anatomy of leaves and leaf shapes, which will lead us to a tree study unit. This week, we explored the parts of a leaf and the shapes of their margins through scavenger hunts and leaf rubbings. On our botany shelf in the classroom, students can make diagrams of the parts of a leaf and leaf shapes booklets.
