We learned that the leaves start to turn colors and fall because the weather is colder, the tree keeps the water in the trunk, and there is less sunlight.
Trees have cool ways of getting their seeds planted! This was a seed, that we usually call a helicopter! It gets carried in the wind.
This acorn is too heavy to be carried in the wind, so it relies on squirrels to help them get planted!
Not all trees have leaves that fall off. Some trees have needles that stay green all year long, and are called evergreen trees.
These trees have pine cones to help hold their seeds.
The four things a tree needs to survive are sun, water, air, and soil.
The last thing we did was act like a tree! We are a bunch of seeds!
We sprouted and were growing our branches!
We grew so big!
