EVERGREEN TREES OPTIONAL WORKBOOK

Simple Schooling Evergreen Trees is all about conifers.  Students are naturally drawn to the “Christmas tree” symbol and will enjoy learning more about how these special trees keep their color all year long.


Simple Schooling unit studies are always easy to use.  This nature study unit can be made into a portfolio keepsake after students are finished.  Simply use a single hole punch to punch through the guide holes at the top of each page, then bind together using yarn, ribbon, or metal binder rings.


Students should read through the introductory text for evergreen trees and then read about each species individually.  Have them study the pictures – pointing out the bark, cones, and needles for each one.  When they have a good idea about the major characteristics for each species they can label the evergreen worksheets.


The second project is a keepsake copybook.  This activity allows the student to choose a few interesting facts about each evergreen species and write about them.  They can also draw or cut out a picture of each species to use the empty space on the first page for each species.


The final activity is a story poem about The Foolish Fir Tree.  This story describes how the fir tree wanted to be something else and teaches a simple moral at the end.  Students can complete the worksheets after the poem to test their memory of the story events.
