Generate a list of facts with your students regarding the forest biome. Allow students to individually choose 5 facts, or think of their own facts. Students will write each fact on one page of their booklets and add illustrations. This project could also be done using Kid Pix software and each child could create their own slide show. Create a leaf identification book.
Children label the name of the tree from which the leaf comes on each page.
Stack the pages, create a book cover, punch two holes in the top edge of each page and tie with yarn. Social Studies Invite a forestry worker to visit your class. Prepare a list of interview questions with your students before the visit. Go on a field trip to any park with deciduous trees. Sometimes zoos have habitat areas available for touring also.
