When doing a Unit on Trees have your class go outside and adopt a tree. Then
you can take walks to the tree and do activities with the tree. Some activities
include: - Measuring how many children (with hands joined) it takes to go around the tree
- Talk about what animals could live in the tree
- Draw pictures of the trees
- Take pictures of the tree (monthly) so the children can see the tree change over time
- In conjunction with the book A Tree Can Be, talk about what a tree can be to your students
