Let's get leafy!

Dear Room 17,

I would like to give you guys a THUNBS UP for your leafy homework. I was amazed by your indentification strategies and presentation skills - glue/tape leaves on poster with clear and colourful labels, laminate leaves with name tags, etc.

Here are some questions for you to think about,
- What do you know about a leaf?
- What is leaf arrangement?
- What kind of leaves can you find around your neighbourhood? Eg, school or the local park.
- How do you identify the leaves?
- What can leaves tell us about our local environment?

Take a couple of minutes and post your ideas and thoughts here! I am looking forward to seeing your posts!

Now have a look at what we had:







One more thing, can you remember the differences between 'need' and 'want'? Have a chat with your parents, friends, or neighbours, and yes I NEED you and I WANT you to post your ideas here NOW!
