Last week's activities. Sorry if I have to flood this post with pictures as I am short on words.
Leaf matching worksheets from Education.com and my own Tree Shapes printable matching cards (including sorting cards).
Leaf Prints
We did not do much of this as Mavi told me they were also doing this in school.
Examining the Parts of a Leaf
He was really interested on this one. Our cards and booklet were from my Parts of a Leaf Learning Pack. You can read more about it here, Botany Unit Learning Pack.
He loves identifying the parts. I'm thankful that we are surrounded with plants so it's easier to pick leaves with pronounced parts.
And instead of bark rubbings (it rained the entire week), so we talked about how the leaves and trees change according to season.
Note: We were planning to have leaf shapes as well. We did this last year and my son had fun collecting leaves from our estate and at the park. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate and we ended up staying at home the whole time we're doing this unit. I was quite disappointed. But... since summer is not over yet, we'll try to have this one when Mr Sun shines brightly again.
And I could not find my leaf sorting cards! And with that I might have a little re-organizing and cleaning up to do next month.
