When you think you know what emerged from the buds, create an online Field Note and share your thoughts with others. In this spotlight, you will look at two online twigs and observe what happens to the bud scales. When you are finished, fill out the survey and tell us what happens to the bud scales on your study tree. Look at drawings from two fourth graders, Dominique and Josh , and read as they describe their predictions about how this branch of buds will grow and transform this spring. Enter your predictions in the Field Notes Journal.
Flowers are a big deal for trees.
Let's watch a movie of a tree flower transforming. When you are done, share your thoughts with other students and report what you think is happening.
