Earth Day:

- Listen to the story, Tell Me, Tree by Gail Gibbons. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jnJFj-LSzo
- Watch video about trees: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I7u5FMQxHA
- Here is a great website for you to explore and learn more about trees: https://www.arborday.org/kids/
- Make a picture of a tree with leaves. On each leaf, write a fact about trees. You can be creative as you want with your picture of a tree. Use any materials that you may have at home: crayons, construction paper, markers, etc.
- Do you have a favorite kind of tree? Mine is a weeping willow. Here is a picture of it.
- Optional: Take a nature walk outside and see if you can pick out the different kinds of trees in your neighborhood.
- Optional: I assigned 3 books about trees on Epic Reading for you to look at.
