Library Learning Patch - Children Discovering Nature
Week 16 - Trees-Part 2
This week we broadened our knowledge of trees. The children learned that our state tree is the pecan. It can grow over 100 feet tall. The nuts provide food for many animals, as well as for us. The wood is very valuable. When identifying a tree, we can look at the shape of the tree, the leaves and the bark. The children examined several trees near the library, comparing the differences.
Our garden is flourishing. We harvested tomatoes, peppers and squash today.
