Trees

Grade K

The giant sequoia is the most massive living organism on earth. To stand in the company of such giants is to experience the scale of life. To a kindergartner the oak on the corner, the pines at the park, and the mulberry trees at school are giants. In the Trees module systematic investigations bring students to a better understanding of the place of trees at school and in the community, and provide some solid experiences on the way to understanding all plants.

FOSS expects students to:

Develop a growing curiosity and interest in the living things that make up their world. Observe and describe the properties of trees and leaves in the schoolyard.
Compare the similarities and differences of the trees and leaves observed on mini field trips.
Help plant and care for a tree temporarily in the classroom, then permanently in the schoolyard.
Observe the trees throughout the school year to observe the changes that come with the different seasons.
Compare the shapes of leaves to geometric shapes.
Compare the size and edges ofleaves using a reference card.
Use pictorial experiences to heighten their awareness of diversity and variety of trees and leaves.
Acquire the vocabulary associated with the properties and structures of trees and leaves.
Use drawings and oral language to describe observations.
