Instructional Ideas

  • Coordinate a time to visit the school library—ask the librarian to share a book about trees, gather a collection of other stories for learners to browse and check out for additional reading opportunities in the classroom 
  • Recreate the tree diagram on a large bulletin board, fill in labels with the class as you work together on the worksheet 

Classroom Considerations

  • Arbor Day celebrations vary depending on the state, check your local area for exact dates 
  • Copies and a variety of materials are required 

Pros

  • Includes background information and a fun fact 
  • Activities can be completed in any order 

Cons

  • Some activities require pages that are not included in this resource
